I love what they did with the ramp though - looked very professionally made.<BR/>I couldn't really understand a lot of what he said either, luckily subtitles had better luck though I notice even they missed some. I wonder if Noel understood it all.<BR/><BR/>There are three things I particularly remember from this game:<BR/>- He just enjoyed it. No over strained agonising followed by 10 mins of deciding, he just played it cool and loved it. He knew exactly what he was doing.<BR/>- The first round was bad but he stated that he was happy with it.<BR/>I agree with this outlook because as no one ever deals on the 1st or 2nd offers and rarely the 3rd offer, half the board will be gone before they take the offer seriously. Therefore I see the first 8 or 11 boxes as the group to judge, not the first 5.<BR/>- He said he went on instinct and he knew when the right time was. He also generally implied that what would happen would happen and it would turn out good. Taking out the 3 biggest in the last round was a magical ending.<BR/>I thought he should have gone at 10 (partly influenced by what happened yesterday), but he knew he could squeeze one more.<BR/><BR/>As for that 25k offer, it's a bit of a mix. Though the 250k will obviously bring the offers upwards, the fact it was all alone usually brings the offers right down. The banker has offered 9.9k given that scenario before. I suspect he offered 25k for a couple of reasons:<BR/>- The fact he knew what he was doing and that he just went on despite his advice to others.<BR/>- The fact he was planning to use the money for a good deed (i.e. not all-for-him). The banker has leaned towards that before.<BR/><BR/><BR/>The very best bit for me was when Noel answered and said "Hello loser... banker". It added to an already fantastic atmosphere. Hopefully it won't make tomorrow's player over confident though.<BR/><BR/>Well done Peter if you're reading this. You played it perfectly, and you provided fantastic viewing. I wish you luck with your project.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
