you know what i hate about this program is the constant "playing a good game" and the "banker is scared of you"
its pure luck there is no skill in picking the boxes to open
the only skill involved is knowing if to accept a deal or not and rarely does the banker offer the correct amount to accept based purely on the odds
and then when they do accept miraclously the amount the banker would of offered you if kept playin matches the true odds
my mother is addicted but i think it a waste of good air time
Wouldn't be much of a show if they didn't ham it up a litte though. |

for those who didnt see todays show. male called fin sitting in chair (age 33?) declares he isnt going to ask anyone for advice but he wants everyones to send him there positive energy before he picks the boxes. He then closes his eyes takes deep breath swivells round in chair opens eys and picks box. System going well gets down to 8 boxes has 250k 100k 20k 10k and 4 blue boxes left get an offer of 44k. He rejects the offer then takes out the 250k and 100k in the next round. rejects next offer get down to two boxes 10k 20k has an offer of 15k rejects it again, phone rings and gets the option to switch boxes, he has the two boxes placed together and asks everyone to really send him all there positive thoughts- energy he then decides to swop boxes and ends up with the smaller box 10k LOL

I have to admit I'm getting fed up of Noel's "This is the most exciting game/most interesting game/most this that and the other game we've had in a long time"
Today was alright, a lot of the others have been getting a little "samey"

What I dont get about this is Noel says at start to everyone, confirm you chose this box at random. How can they all choose their box if theres only 22 boxes. I mean what if 2 people want box 7?

They pick a numbered ball out of a bag and that gives them their box |

This show is far more enjoyable if you press the mute button!
I know they have to ham it up a bit, but it's cringeworthy in the extreme.
24K - yes please.

Very tough decision.
Unless he has balls of steel, he may have to take this offer.

I'd be very tempted.
Having 20k left wouldn't be tragic.
