Title: Deal or no deal Post by: Christo! on October 01, 2009, 04:37:32 PM Just put this on, the girl is in a very strong situation, think she has all the top 5 intact and only one blue box left.

Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: Christo! on October 01, 2009, 04:50:37 PM looks like I jinxed her lol
Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: GreekStein on October 01, 2009, 04:53:18 PM Soon as you said girl I couldn't be bothered to switch one of the office TV's on. She'd only get offered 14k by the banker and insta-deal.

Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: Cf on October 01, 2009, 05:38:00 PM £14,000 is the only result anyone should really get there. Or No Deal to that and get the £50,000. Any other deal is overly cautious.
Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: bolt pp on October 01, 2009, 05:56:09 PM lol she was a melon,
was offered......26k, 32k, 36k, and left with 14k all because she let the audience gee her up into gambling when you cound see she didnt want to, if it wasnt bad enough that she took by far one of her lowest offers her box had 50k in it and she was going to gamble untill she let some pricks again in talk her out of it, made the wrong move at every go idiot Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: DaveShoelace on October 01, 2009, 07:06:56 PM As an aside, she would have made it into my 'telly birds you fancy but shouldnt' list

Then she would have got 50K. Trouble was she was keen on Box 7....so would have been offered the swop ,taken it ......and got a tenner! Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: TightEnd on October 01, 2009, 08:17:57 PM thought 14k was a horrible deal for any gambler, well under EV, but for normal people its too much money to risk losing with a chance of 10p in her box

Title: Re: Deal or no deal Post by: Cf on October 01, 2009, 09:42:20 PM It was
£10 £35,000 £50,000 £75,000 £100,000 Her offer was £32,000. There's a 60% chance of having 2 reds to finish = more than £32,000. £10 and £100,000 will prob be a stick, or slight drop. £10 and other red is obviously a drop, but one we can live with for the possibility of the red/red finish. But importantly, we'll always be getting a £10,000+ offer. Once you get to the end, yeah, £14,000 is a bit of an anti-climax. But now we're flipping between nothing and £50,000. Even tho it's clearly +EV to flip here you shouldn't be doing it unless you're sufficiently rich.

Even tho it's clearly +EV to flip here you shouldn't be doing it unless you're sufficiently rich. she then got offered 36k immediately after taking out the 25kk box thats the one she should have 100% taken, my thinking is that if she leaves the £10 with any other red at the end then after having hugh offers the banker will force her to gamble with a small offer because he knows the big sums you just turned down are still in your head, with 36k locked up for the sake of getting 50 or 75k odd balanced against having to gamble and leaving with a tenner i think you have to take the 36k. |
