Yup box 8 for me

You ok with the prize money in Iranian Rial Spike?

My first 5 will be 1,10, 12, 16, 17.

And it's welcome to BigRon, who I believe is an ex traffic warden? If so, let's hope your box has 1p in it.

Only kidding.

Ron - you've chosen Box 8. Can we have your first 5 picks please?

Admin wrote: ↑Wed May 20, 2020 5:00 pm No. You dealt at £24,000. What you wanted after that was for your box to have a low number in it and the banker not to increase his offer.

Sadly, you had the jackpot box from the off but bailed out. You then have to suffer sitting there and finding out that you could've won much more.

But I redeemed it a bit by swapping at the end, so it wasn't £250,000 I missed out on, it was just the £100. I bet the banker is fewmin.

Nope, no idea wtf is going on.
Still ...........Good game, good game.

Box 1 - Not a great start Ron - £35,000

Box 10 - Another red - £1,000

Box 12 - First blue - £500

Box 16 - Red again - £5000

Last box - can he put another blue away?

Box 17 - Oh no! - £75,000 swept from the board.

A bit but he's also quite chuffed at giving you only £24,000 rather than £78,000.

No deal , 2,4,6,22,

Sorry Ron - you only get 3 picks this round. I'll take your first 3 numbers only.

Here we go......

Ron's on an even number run here - 2, 4 and 6 are his picks. The man with the drum in the crowd has been replaced by chap drawing a picture of Katie Perry.

Box 2 - A solid blue start - £10.

Box 4 - Disaster!!! £100,000......... a big red has gone.

Box 6 - he needs a good pick........ AARRRGGHHHHH double disaster!!! £250,000 the big one has gone......

What a sorry round for BigRon. The banker's pissing himself. He offers him £2,500.

Ron - deal or no deal?

No deal , 20,21,22 please

He's back. The audience we're wondering where Ron had gone but he just had to move his car before he got a ticket. Lesson for Ron there - don't park on yellow lines.

Anyway, he's gone consecutive numbers this time. Surely this round will be better for Ron....

Box 20 - It's a blue!! £100

Box 21 - Hmm..... a low red but £3000 has gone.

He holds his breath - please let it be blue......

Box 22 - Sacre Bleu! £50,000 has gone.

Ron's struggles continue. The banker's offer is even lower now - £2,000

Ron - deal or no deal?

What's this?

The phone rings again. The Banker's asking Ron if he wants to change his box for another number left in play.

Will Ron stay or go?

No deal , 3,7,15 please

Assuming Ron didn't want to swap his box. He's staying faithful to the bitter end. He needs a blue cruise......

Box 3 - What a start! 10p

Box 7 - Another Blue - £250

Can he make it a full set. Fingers crossed for Ron -

Box 15..... OUR FIRST BLUE CRUISE!! £50.

Ron - deal or no deal?

No deal , my tactic was to save my lotto numbers till last so 5,14,19, please .

Brave move. Ron's last but 3 picks are made....

Box 5 - Groans from the crowd as £15,000 is removed from the board.

Box 14 - The mood lifts as £1 goes.

Hush around the studio......

Box 19 - Another blue, but perhaps not quite what he wanted - £750.

Crunch time for Ron - the banker's going to tempt him as he's see's an almost even money chance of a red prize for Ron.

The banker's offer - £6,250

Deal or no Deal Ron?

No deal , im sure i have 20 k in my box and 8 & 9 are my lucky numbers , so 18, 13, and 11 please , ( I know the bankers car and still have my ticket machine )

I was right to open a bottle of Moretti and sit out in the sunshine.
