Deal Or No Deal

What a great show for playing the odds.....

A superb programme to watch. Has me gripped every time. (when I'm home from the office early enough! )

Channel 4

4.15 Mon-Fri, 4.30 Sat

[vegyjones]

And it's got

NOEL EDMONDS!!! :spinning :D :D

[tovarich]

And it's got

NOEL EDMONDS!!! :spinning :D :D


I never thought anything could make me watch Ainsley Harriot and Ready Steady Cook--------------but Noel Edmonds managed it!!! :D

[samantha1303]

Its a great show, I catch it when I can.
Yesterday was a nightmare.
The guy got offered £54,000, he took it then found out that the box sitting in front of him contained £250,000.
Fair play to him no-one in their right mind would turn down £54,000 but to then discover you could have walked away with £250,000 must be a killer

[bigcumba]

I've seen it a few times - very good indeed! And about time Noel Edmonds was back on telly, one of the best game show hosts around.

You mean you missed the one with the naked page 3 girls?

[markwales]

I'm glad a few people enjoy it :D

[Stewards enquiry]

I like it and I agree Noel Edmunds is a good game show host.

[piggy]

i think it's a great show watch it every day

[vegyjones]

Anyone buying the Telly Addicts DVD for Christmas...

I thought it looked good and was gonna buy it to play at me mum and dads on Boxing Day!

A worrying lack of smilies on that post Vegy. :yikes:

[bigcumba]

Maybe he wants his mum to knit him one of Noel's multicoloured jumpers....

[radders]

It is a surprisingly good show, especially for day-time TV.

Caught in 2 weeks ago in the pub, and now make a point of watching it whenever possible, in the pub, with a bunch of gamblers .... good stuff!

We had hoped that 'Trevor' would get nothing today, as he's come across as a smug, know-all in the past couple of weeks ... :(

[zomby]

Is there really someone else on the other end of the phone when Noel picks up the phone?

[MattR]

Great show, watched it out of interest first day, now make a point of watching it. Glad the guy today got a big win as he's offered some sound advice to the other players. Seems to be a real team spirit going amongst the players and they all seem genuinely pleased to see everyone win. I think the camaradery that's come from it may even have surprised the makers as it's added something else to it too.

[nick_sufc]

Yes there is somone really on the otherside of the phone i didnt think there was up until yesterday when the person asked for the phone and spoke to him himself great show

[Iron Chris]

What a game going on tonight...:yikes:

[frontrunner]

Is there really someone else on the other end of the phone when Noel picks up the phone?

Yes there is zomby. I only know this for sure because when I was in the audience and sitting 2 rows away from the contestant you could hear the banker speaking to Noel Ooo What a show it is mark I'm a big fan of the show so much so that I've been in the audience 4 times and am going again in a couple of weeks :) Will be offering the usual 5/6 each whether the first box opened is a red or a blue :mover

I can write a software program that completes the game in less than 1 sec!! No skill or intelligence required, and the prize on offer is simple bookmaker odds calculations.

[Fadetoblack]

:yikes: £1 and £250, 000 left!

What would you do?

[vegyjones]

Go for the high number! Ooo

[mathare]

I have never seen the start of this game - how does it all get going? There are 20-odd boxes with people stood behind them but are they the same people each time or what?

[Micky T]

:yikes: £1 and £250, 000 left!

What would you do?

Whats the deal amount ??

[Fadetoblack]

75, 000

[vegyjones]

Gop for the high number, it's £250,000

[presto]

mr safety says keep the £75k :)

[Micky T]

75, 000


Take it

[Fadetoblack]

You'd really have to take the money. The prospect of losing 75 grand is worse than not winning 250000

[vegyjones]

No No No.. gamble :)

[Fadetoblack]

He took the 75.

The 250, 000 was in the box.

[vegyjones]

The high box or the low box,

I would have gambled ( :D ) and taken the high box!

[Win2Win]

OPEN THE BOX

:peeky Is the key in it? Have I won the car?

Who hosts it now Bob Monkhouse is dead :doh

Looking good in tonight's game

[Win2Win]

Must have been exciting with all the posts :rolleyes:

[Fadetoblack]

:rolleyes:

[Fadetoblack]

Shocking scenes at the moment...as one of the boxes falls off the counter and the contestant sees the amount.....

(Im working all day..I'm easily shocked)

[bigcumba]

yeah, watching it as well, really feel sorry for the contestant, as he was on such a roll, and now he's in much more iffy position....

[Fadetoblack]

Looks like a nice guy too. Hope he gets a few bob out of it...

[Win2Win]

One sentence to you lot......




GET OUT MORE




:D :D :D :D

[Fadetoblack]

says internet boy :laugh the boy with more sites than a pikey!

[bigcumba]

the boy with more sites than a pikey!

:laugh You better watch - there might be someone lurking around that takes offence to that... :wink

[Win2Win]

My ex used to do good lurks :)

[Fadetoblack]

Oh yeah...I forgot about that lad....sorry....travelling folk...:geek

[bigcumba]

Back on topic, the guy must have had to go lie down in a darkened room after all that stress... though £7500 will soften it a bit, it could have been so much better!

[Win2Win]

....though £7500 will soften it a bit....
Not sure about that comment, winning £7,500 makes mine stand up :icon_tong

[bigcumba]

Stop watching ya perve :D

[johnthegun]

Oh yeah...I forgot about that lad....sorry....travelling folk...:geek

Mate I've no problem with the "travelling folk" sterotype as long as ye put up with the preception that the "sasnachs" are pot bellied, tattoded laden, lager swilling, obnoxious brutes. Ooo

As someone that back horses you got to have a sence of humor, and from what i've read here, pisstaking is common, which is good for a laugh, but sometimes "generalisations" is just plain shyte!

I know I'm still just a "tyre kicker" on this forum (i'm still trying to work out how can Keith pick out a horse to win and lay at the same time:yikes: {jacks craic, armaguedon}and i dont often bitch (mainly I'm too lazy) and if I can contribute some thing usefull, so be it

As we say over here " aitnean ceirog, ceirog eile" - it takes an insect to know a insect!:geek :D

[Win2Win]

jacks craic, armaguedon
If they were 'C' Bets, that is info only, not bets I do, unless they are upgraded later on.Otherwise the WIN always overrules the LAY bet.

Where are you from John the gun?

[Win2Win]

Craggy Island :D

[johnthegun]

[johnthegun]

If they were 'C' Bets, that is info only, not bets I do, unless they are upgraded later on.Otherwise the WIN always overrules the LAY bet.

Surely all bets start off a "C" bets. Why would you put in a "C" horse if the stats show that it was unlikely to finish in front according to your lay formula/method? Would no bet where there is a nagging doubt either way be more astute?

By the way Craggy Island was filmed in Clare:wink

[vegyjones]

C bets are for horses that Keith has noted and generally run well. He doesn't bet them unless they are upgraded. They are there for informational purposes for members to do with as they please! :)

[Fadetoblack]

10K and 100K left. banker offers 35K

He says NO DEAL!

What would you do?

[piggy]

would you have gone for it today , last 2 boxes 10k and 100k offer 35k he no deals and has the 100k in his box, but would have you dealt at 35k?

[piggy]

blimey FTB you must have posted 1 sec before me:)

[mathare]

Mathematically your expectation is £55k so he did the right thing not to deal. That's if you appraoch this from a maths point of view and not a "how much money would I settle for" point of view

[MarcusMel]

What happend?

If he had in his mind to leave with 10K or there abouts he was going to be happy what ever the result.

[Iron Chris]

This might be of amusement to some of you..:D

[Fadetoblack]

:laugh great stuff

[piggy]

i excepted 46k but i had 100k in my box:yikes:

[bigcumba]

Since that game seems to have disappeared here's an Excel version :) .. to keep your minds off BB7 of course....

[vegyjones]

That game seems to have a few bugs BigC

Can't believe that they made them take that other one off though! :ermmm :)

[bigcumba]

Bugs... ah well, I found it on the Yahoo Office attachments site - just played it a couple of times and it seemed OK? The other one I didn't look at but was surprised to see it had gone already - daft when you consider it was free publicity for the show

[vegyjones]

Found an online game for the american version..

Why change a format that don't need changing :rolleyes:
