[@mohammedauzer3373]

Hahahahaha the scream when the 250k is revealed 😂😂😂😂

[@JulianShagworthy]

Statistically, he made a sound choice - he only had a 1 in 4 chance of having a higher amount than the offer.

[@huwpickrell1209]

Agreed most people fail to see that through

[@lowbarscooter]

The issue is the average win with that board is over £33k. Of course people have different tolerance to risk. For example if we replaced the £250k with £1 billion he almost certainly wouldn't have dealt even though your logic still applies. Conversely, even knowing the average, if there was a hypothetical board of 1p and £1 billion but the offer was £1 million, personally I'd probably accept that offer as £1 million is still a life changing sum of money even though it's wayyyyy below the average. That was a sound choice to him clearly but others may not consider it so

[@JulianShagworthy]

@lowbarscooter The problem is that the boxes are discreet values, so the mean average is a pretty useless metric, although psychologically it holds a lot of weight. The median is a more appropriate measure with discreet data, which is only £750 for this board.

[@lowbarscooter]

@@JulianShagworthy I disagree considering the significant disparity in the max value box though as I point out with my first example. Using your logic the max value box could be worth a trillion pounds and it still wouldn't change the median even though almost anyone on the planet, presumably including the man in this video, would turn down a 5k offer in that situation

[@huwpickrell1209]

@@JulianShagworthy totally agree I also posted something similar on another reply. The mean average is useless the median is important and as mentioned the 5k offer was well above this. It was a sensible deal just v unfortunate how things unfolded

The fact he had the 250k is irrelevant. The time to deal was at 88k. No way would any right minded person risk a 78k loss on a coin flip, unless you're a reckless gambler.

[@sm0g-810]

And you're a moron for thinking that it can't all just change for the worse in one round. He got a good offer as there was only 2 boxes higher what he dealt at. It's been shown in the last few episodes this week that someones turned down a few thousand and then lost the 250000 in their next round.

It seemed unlikely that dealing at 5k could have worked. The likelihood of taking it out was low even if it wasnt in his box and he had some back up. Must be a big regret even though it was 10 years ago.

It's even more heartbreaking as my whole family were crying in the living room as I was watching it in my bedroom. Colin is by far our least favorite contestant on this show. This happened in 2013 so there could be a way to forget about our moment. I feel so sad I'm trying to forget about it.

[@jamesharding322]

DoND was WELL AND TRULY a shadow of it's old self by this point - This period was completely dominated by cautious deals, weak contestants, at least half the people on the wings negative wing advice to get the person in the chair to deal, and BS excuses for dealing early! Something tells me it was all a charade to try and deter people from gambling to save the show money......

[@PastaSauce.]

The people who dealt early was the ones who had no money. (Me included at that time) The people who won big and went further in the game did so because they had a comfortable lifestyle with big savings in the bank. They could afford the risk. Many of us quit out jobs to be able to film for 4 weeks.

[@weasel2173]

[@huwpickrell1209]

Depend on how much 5k means to you. Statistically it wasnt a bad decision at all as more boxes we left with less thsn 5k at the time. Right decision but unfortunate outcome

[@andrew1903]

Statistically a box was worth £33,281.31 when he sold his for £5k. Obviously depends on risk appetite but it was a pretty awful deal.

[@edd9632]

Yeah that's not how maths works, idiot...

[@huwpickrell1209]

​@@andrew1903 I disagree since the boxes contain discreet amounts and are not continuous you should take the median average I.e.the middle value if the boxes were ordered by value. 5k was above the median value therefore statistically 5k was a reasonable offer. It was just unfortunate that he held the 250k box , which was less that likely when he accepted the offer. If 5k meant a great deal to him it was a sensible deal as opposed to going home with a pitifully amout which given the number of blue boxes left wss a good probability.

[@JulianShagworthy]

​@edd9632 It absolutely does - the £250,000 doesn't 'drag' the average up because, as mentioned, the boxes are discreet values. It's the median that matters, not the mean.

[@danielbuchanan1242]

Wrong, the mean value is the only value which matters when it comes to calculating equity, I promise I play a lot of poker, he had roughly 33k in equity, so taking 5k is such a misstep. You can work out the equity by averaging all the values, as the boxes get removed this value gets adjusted. The only pure maths strat for the game is to accept a deal when the banker offers money at least somewhat close to the amount of equity you have​@@JulianShagworthy

He certainly shouldn't think about taking up poker. If he had some kind of serious debt, needed to fund some kind of medical treatment, or there was some kind of similar situation going on in his life, I could sort of understand him taking the money. What can £5000 get you in this day and age that would make a significant difference to anyone's life if they happen to be on more than a subsistence level of income? Very little is the answer.
