I would've reluctantly cut ny losses there.

“Number 22, Finori please.”
“We’re focusing on getting them ten grand now, please don’t reveal that… Also, we’d like you to add to the five grand in Kett’s charity pot please!”
“I think we’ve all loved your energy tonight Kett, I hope you get that ten grand! I think I’ve got 500z in here…”

Box 22 – Finori – 500z
** CORRECT GUESS – 2,500z **

“Excellent! We’ve got seven and a half grand in a pot now for the SkyHi institute, and I hope we’re about to send you and your family home with ten grand.” The phone rings.

"Hello... Hah okay." Ruhina hangs up. "His final offer to you for that box, Kett, is half what the charity pot is worth right now. 3,750z."



"What shall we do, Nad? Shall we play for the ten or should we enjoy ourselves with 3,750?"
"It's completely up to you my darling, I'm behind whatever you want to do." Nadra seems content also given the game that has just unfolded.
"You know, we could do something nice with that and buy our forthcoming grandchild some new clothes and what have you. It wouldn't be nice to take home just 30z after all of this, so I will DEAL!"

Why would you turn down 2,700z just to Deal for a grand more after risking a 1 in 3 chance of disaster?

Well played by the Banker at the end there for what it's worth.

There's an applause from the audience, almost of relief after what has been a rather painful game. "You obviously came here for a lot more money than that, but that is a nice bit of money to take home to enjoy with your family. I hope, though, that you made the right decision and you only had 30z in Box 12. Before we open that, we need to see what Haley thinks is in Box 6, for a chance to bring that charity pot to ten thousand zeela... Haley?"
"I'll go for ten thousand, for ten thousand!"
"Let's hope she's right..." says Ruhina, as she pulls the seal off of Box 12. "You sold this box for 3,750z, and all along, it had..."

Box 12 - Kett - 10,000z

"You had the ten thousand! Haley open your box."

Box 6 - Haley - 30z

Kett's still smiling as her family head over to congratulate her. "It's not exactly the result I wanted but there's enough there to help us be a little happier for a while. Now we look forward to the arrival of our grandchild!" The audience applaud as the camera turns to Ruhina.
"And that's the flip side of this game, sometimes you can push it a bit too far and miss out on a lot of money! She managed to get twice as much money, 7,500z for the SkyHi institute in Tenolervu whom I'm sure will put that donation to such good use. Will our next player be able to make, a Big Deal? Join us next week, goodnight!"

Oof. I decided to bail at 27kz, but that was a pretty harsh game. It's always kind of awkward when the podium picks up more money than the actual contestant, but at least here it goes to charity

If I had a game like this I'd try and strike a deal with the Banker to give me 6,000z instead of giving the charity 7,500z.

Okay then Scrooge.
