    Applause for £21k?! I can't believe this stupid audience! >:(

    £28,000 is reasonable.

    I might be dealing here. That 1p really concerns me.

    Poor offer. >:(

    I would have thought there would be more lights. I think she has a "red" but I'm not sure which one. Don't get crazy, Cori. Think about it even though it is a shockingly poor offer.

    The FD is low because of the 1p I think.

    £28,000 was only 42 per cent of the mean and at this stage of the game, that is poor. >:(

    Well, I did say she had a red but it is the lowest.

    I would have won £750 if swap was offered. :(

    DO NOT USE BOX 23.

    She will NOT take Box 23 and nor would I!

    DOUBLE was in there for the last 2 days. +£10k wouldn't be that much of a boost.

    NOTHING! :D

    Why? Would it make any difference to your decision if it was the £100 instead of the 1p? And if so,why?

    You are playing for tens of thousands of pounds. If you lose,does it matter if you go home with £100 or 1p?

    A blue is a blue.

    I do not and never will understand the fear of the 1p.

    But that does not make it any more likely to appear today. It is always the same chance,1 in 5,just like all the other possibilties.

    Try this experiment. Get a dice and roll it. Count the rolls until you have gone six rolls without a one. Then roll it again. Note down this number. Keep doing this. Whenever you get a one,go back to the start,and wait until you have six rolls without seeing a one,and then note down the next roll. How often will that seventh roll be a one? If you do enough trials,it will average out at one time in six,the same as at any other time. The fact that you have gone six rolls without seeing a one does not make it any more likely on the seventh roll.

    You will get the same result if you wait ten rolls,or even twenty,although obviously that would take much longer to do,since you won't often get twenty rolls without a one. But if you do,a one still isn't any more likely on the 21st roll.

    She was a bit too aggressive and intimidating for my liking, but a good result none the less

    Yes,I thought that as well,all that shouting and everything,I mean it really isn't necessary. All you're doing is picking boxes.

    Think I would freak out if I was on the show and she eyeballed me while I opened a box :p

    Good game today. Cori reminded me of Gavin from last month with her loud reaction to the boxes. Ironically enough they had the same 5 box offer, and thankfully Cori dealt then as she would've crashed to a lot less than £20,000 had she went on. :)

    Yes agree with you there.

    Why do so many players do this stupid 'come on' shouting - what's the point? Even an old lady did it not so long ago. So butch from a woman and completely idiotic from both sexes. They are only picking boxes so any amount of 'come ons' make no difference to the outcome whatsoever.

    But that's where you're wrong,because a recent exhaustive study of hundreds of Deal or No Deal games by Professor Hertz Van Rental,from the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Utrecht has conclusively shown that shouting, "COME ON!" before a round starts is 17.3% more likely to produce a favourable round for the player than if it is not shouted.

    However he also noticed a "plateau effect",whereby increasing the number of "COME ON!" shouts would increase the likelihood of a blue box being picked,but this only worked up to a certain limit,further shouts of "COME ON!" were unlikely to significantly improve the result.
