The truth is that more people walked away from the power five than the amount of people who went home with the Banker's power five. Not enough people were able to read the board and have the courage to follow it.
Did you not watch the game, Andrew was one the best readers of the board the UK version of Deal had! He took a few risks while the odds were in his favor but knew at 5 box £15,000 was an amazing offer for the board at 80% of the average and the only way to improve significantly on it was to get really lucky and hit the 20% chance of keeping the £50k backed up by another red. I agree that a lot less people won £35,000+ than there should've been due to overly cautious deals, but this wasn't one of them. If you blindly chase the big money you're gonna end up with next to nothing more often than not.
@@bencalebrod I think you have misread the board. There is a 40% chance of gaining the big money, the exact same chance of getting a Blue. With a 20% chance of gaining a slightly smaller yet still reasonable red. A 60% chance of having a red in your box. To get me to deal then, the banker would have to make me an offer that was closer to £35,000 than £10,000 or I'd take my 40% with backup of 60% onwards and upwards to the bank by the looks of it.
@@bencalebrodthanks for that, I've just showed the kids this comment. I said I was good at reading the board haba It's Andrew from the show by the way
@@christianfrost8660hard decisions to make on the day, you've also got to weigh up what was on in the shows previous and take that into consideration. It's Andrew from the show by the way
Amazing intro, a refresh for the imo better days of deal. Here is imo the comparison. Normal 22 boxes. £250,000. One question. Deal or no deal? New The boxes are back! The pilgrims are back! The money is back! We are back for a new season of deal or no deal!
I didn't expect that you're gonna comment here, but I've watched your game several times, yet you missed out on a guaranteed £35,000-£50,000 climax, did you feel any regrets after taking the 5th offer or not?.........
@@kennethaninon6913not regrets, but I did feel as if I should have kept going. But how do you turn down 15 grand cash when it's there for you. Reality hit home when I lost the 17.5k
