Anyone watch this just now? Sick. Old lady had 1p and 250k left. She knocked back 88k!!!! Didn't swap- opened her box and it was the bagel

Just saw, so sick.

Kind of puts all the coin-flips I've sweated over to shame!

Was kind of hoping it would be some nice old lady who made a really brave gutsy 'no deal' - but it appears its just a mad old woman who mindlessly refuses to deal because she 'knows' she will win a 24-1 shot.

Go on then, I like her, it was a tough decision for her, Im watching the replay and thought she was just gonna mindlessly carry on the way she did throughout.

your a subscriber to monty's door theory also i see.

it sure applies to DOND.

Just caught the end of this on 4+1 thanks to this thread. Pretty sick.

I don't believe Monty Hall's Doors is relevant for DonD.

long term she would of been mad to take 88k

but DOND is a one off i would of snapped dealt the 88k

Yeh I would have dealt at 88k

Sick thing is she was really pondering swapping

If I ever went on I'd defo have someone to give me insurance.

OK hellmuth

An old lady opened her box and there was a bagel inside??? On daytime tv, wtf

...and it was her birthday!!.

the fact that she is given the option to swap means that it is no longer a 24-1 shot

Why ? She still ended up with only 1 of the 24 boxes.

Sandy

at that stage its 50/50

where on earth do you get 24-1 from?

ladbrookes but betfair are offering 26.0

If I go on I hope I get box 24 - it's my lucky number.

The point of the Monty Hall swappage is that the show presenter picks a door to open and that door will always be one that doesn't have the prize.

There sure are 24 boxes on Deal or No Deal

Most of the time I will offer people £20k as the banker.

Most people won't risky £20k on a 50% chance of winning £250k

£20k is way too low. I know very few people who wouldnt risk £20k for a 50% chance of winning 250k. And i dont mean rich poker friends, i mean family members and other friends who just get by. its just far too small a figure. £50k and we might be talking.

fwiw i just watched todays online. It was great, she was just the sickest, she was sat there smiling as the figure was about to be revealed.

88k cant change an old ladys life, stop slowrolling and get it in imo. 88 will piss about when she gives abit to all her family etc. 250k oioioioioi

sick  gamble imo but fair play to her

There was a guy on the show once who snap-dealt the first offer for 6k or similar low amount. I couldn't believe it. All that time doing the shows and he snap-deals the first offer he gets. What are you doing man?? He had the smug look of a guy who thought he knew something you didn't, a real shrewd operator like. After he dealt he hit blue after blue after blue and had all reds left. The big offers kept coming in, all well in excess of his pezzy deal amount. That was the best episode I found myself lolling every time yet another blue was opened. That guy must have felt like the biggest nit in the world.

which country?

never been one in uk where they have dealt before 3rd offer

Prob third offer then I don't watch it much. But why deal so early so low when every big amount is still in? I didn't see the granny flip for 250k but can only applaud her degen attitude.

i have always thought about going on it and dealing asap just to say i was the first

maybe he was the first to deal at that stage

cant  say as i dont watch it when i can get away with it
