Taffin Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 serves her right. Deal or No Deal is not about getting about the 250k box, its about playing it so you get a good offer and take it at the point its likely to be highest. She should have taken ?88,000 rather than being a greedy/dumb bint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therapist Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 incase anyone wants to see some poor old lady looking suicidal. She actually took the crushing blow very well.

Father Tiresias Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Having watched the show myself may I say that some of your comments are well out of order. She was a 74-year-old who was single minded in her quest to land the ?250,000 and it made great viewing. Ok, she lost, but fair play to her and you know what? I don't think she'll lose a moments sleep about the decision she made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 ?88,000 gamble is just plain insanity. if it was about ?30,000 or ?40,000 i might take the gamble because you're being given huge odds for a 50/50 gamble but ?88,000 isn't all that far short of the ?125,000 halfway house. i admire the bottle but it is as daft as s****.
