I'd say they were significantly less than 20/1 with only three extra counters. Besides, he'd already given up on it so he was never going to take the gamble.

Also you can see them better on TV - A sea of counters all the same would all blur into one mass.”

Damn. I need to get me a HD television

Yes. I was just making the point that gambling £3100 to win £10000 would be roughly the same as taking odds of slightly less than 9/4. The odds of winning the jackpot in that scenario were clearly significantly longer than that. As you say, possibly nearer a 33/1 shot, if not higher

Wait until the Olympics are over. They will have masses of them to get rid of for cheap prices!

That's when I'll be upgrading mine!

The contestant spoilt the end of the show for luckless Ben, he was clearly ignoring the jackpot counter and totting up his prize money to £3,000 and ignoring any nonsense from Ben about maybe going for the jackpot

It's looking very good for the jackpot today, he chose a good zone.

Well it's at least on the second level, just depends on his luck.

My neighbour like watching it, on demand via virginmedia, but tonight it wasn't available.

I gave it a couple of days, it's as mind numbingly boring as playing the game yourself in arcades.

I think i must be the only person who likes this show. But then after being forced to watch a hour of Deal or No Deal any quiz show would be good.

I would rather watch 24 hour re-runs of tipping point than 5 mins of Noel doing DOND

There are a few 'fans' of tipping point on this thread, I for one just can't help myself
