How bizarre.
I was going to post about this today but wasn't sure if I'd get any sort of response.
What a stange show.
Do you reckon anyone actually speaks to Noel on that phone??
I think I'm missing somehting tho. Isn't accepting or declining the deal a simple matter of adding up all the possible prizes and dividing by the amount of prizes there are?
eg. the last offer today for £200 when there were two boxes of 10p and £500 left. Surely any offer under £250 should be declined. What's to think about?
Plus. Is there much skill in this game or is it just a case of guessing the right boxes?

Jeez snoop you can tell youve joined the ranks of the unwashed . Students, poker players all them types . Posting about afternoon TV. Hooked on Quincey yet? Still I like the show , not too much skill I dont think its about risk v reward and personal value of money as far as i can see.

I Love this show.
Is it an orginal concept or bought in from abroad?
I am so sad I have asked the missus for a video recorder for xmas mainly to record this show.

Shit post Nakor, such a clown.

The infuriating thing though is when the players say" X has had big numbers last three days so they cannot have one now" A classic fallacy.Addictive stuff though, very simple format, which the best shows always are.

randomly. one of 22 punters picked from those and takes his/her box and then fun starts |

Quite scary how brain dead some of them are... but amusing, the deal should nearly always be ingored from a value persective... but if its a coin flip between 50p and 250k and he offers you 100k ... are u gona risk it??  |

The show is imported from Italy I think. Well, it's been on Italian TV for over a year. The english version is very tame in comparison. Last week a woman had 1 million euros in her box. She took a deal of 60k! Tonight someone turned down 30k with just 2 boxes left: 5 and 75k - he won 5 euros!

Sometimes you have to suffer a little bit in your youth to motivate yourself to succeed in later life. Do you think if Bill Gates got laid in high school, do you think there'd be a Microsoft? Of course not.  |
