NO DEAL!!!: this show drives me up a wall. Why do people on Deal or No Deal get overly excited and make extremely poor decisions? Have these people forgotten that they've come to the show with nothing? If 1 million is still left on the board, the only other amounts are $1, $50, $500 and $1000 and the bank is offering you $609,000. TAKE THE $609K! But that almost never happens. I thought maybe these people were just caught up in the moment and make stupid decisions, but now I've decided that their all just idiots. Or the producers peruse Gamblers Anonymous for contestants. The families that are there for "support" are often just as ridiculous. You know the greedy wife that keeps gesturing for 'no deal' for the husband who can't think for himself, while the people in the crowd are visibly shaking their heads. I was never a huge fan of the show, but after a man passed on 400K and left with $10... I vowed never to watch it again! That is all.

After being part of the Audience for Deal or No Deal I still don't understand some people on that show either. I was on there when there was a lady participant that couldn't catch a break! I mean she kept opening the largest money cases she could find! This game is all about luck and then once you get that big offer it's about self control! You're right if you are offered 609K take it!!!!! Now if the last 3 cases are 400,000; 700,000 and 1 million it's pretty safe to wait it out cause you know you will at least walk away with 400,000. But if your cases don't even come close that then take the stinkin offer! LOL
