C&K*s Mommie wrote: 1) Do you get into the game and yell at the tv, DEAL-- take the money!! or NO DEAL!!--?? Or anything like that, as though they can hear you??

2) Have you ever guessed the correct suitcase the $10,000 dollars is in??

3)If you were a contestant going on it, would you have a set amount that you would quit at, or if the odds were against you would you still go all the way bank or bust? I know that being in the situation IRL you never truly know till you get there, but on the outside looking in, what would you do??

luvbug00 replied: I have screamed at the TV. But Mya is obsessed and screams louder then the adults..

I have yet to pick the right suitcase

brad is trying to get on the show

and I personaly think if you hit a point where your odds are VERY low and money is good and you keep going It's just greedy.

C&K*s Mommie replied: I am guilty of hollering at the TV blush.gif I tend to get into those types of games

I have never guessed the right suitcase. Even last night, Chris said #6, I voted for suitcase 5 (the one I chose) and 6.

I would play it safe and not chance the odds. I would walk at a decent number if I was outnumbered by the low numbers. I would walk anytime after $75,000, if the odds were not really in my favor.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: 1) Yes blush.gif

2) Yes, I have guessed it once. biggrin.gif

3) It really depends on how the board looked at that point. If I still had high numbers up there I wouldn't quit unless the bank offered me over $500,000. wink.gif It would be worth it at that point....for my sanity. And of course if the board wasn't looking too good I would take the highest offer and run. biggrin.gif

Love that show!!!! happy.gif

C&K*s Mommie replied: true enough. I agree. Like last night, the 'boxer' was offered as much as $139,000-- I personally would have walked then. But her mother talked her out of it.

kayla's mama replied: I love that show.I didn't watch last nights tho.

We yell at the TV and we pick the 10,000 suitcase. I would stop when the "banker" offered triple Jason's salary or more. I would love to be on the show tongue.gif

luvmykids replied: I don't yell at the tv but I cry when they suprise them with loved ones!

I've never guess correctly on the $10k but I have the $1 million!

I honestly don't know where I'd quit, I guess it would just depend on the board. But I think towards the end anything over $100k, then again, I'd probably just go for it. Its a game!

redchief replied: We all sat and yelled at the contestants last night together. We call that family time. laugh.gif

Brias3 replied: I need to start watching this show...it sounds exciting! laugh.gif

luvbug00 replied: brias3 it is WAY exciting my MIL has to take her xanex she gets sooo worked up by it emlaugh.gif

C&K*s Mommie replied: It really is a fun show, I am also glad it comes on more than one night a week. That really draws me in more and more.

5littleladies replied: I always scream at the television. The kids think I'm nuts! rolling_smile.gif

I've never picked the right suitcase. rolleyes.gif

I have no idea where I would stop, but it probably wouldn't take much. It would really depend on what the board looked like.

I sit there and yell at the contestant

2) Have you ever guessed the correct suitcase the $10,000 dollars is in??

Yes but it still didn't do any good. There were probably a milion and a half other people that guessed it too. LOL

3)If you were a contestant going on it, would you have a set amount that you would quit at, or if the odds were against you would you still go all the way bank or bust? I know that being in the situation IRL you never truly know till you get there, but on the outside looking in, what would you do??

Nope I'm a gambler and am stupid enough just to keep going and probably walk away with a penny. emlaugh.gif

Now here is a question... Has anyone noticed that there seems to be a trend of the type of people that are allowed to paly DOND? It's like they have standards on people's looks that play the game. I know to enter to play you have to send in a video of you and two of the people that would be joining you on the show. dunno.gif Maybe it's just me though. I can't wait to watch it tomorrow night. I have to work but I'm turning off the phones for an hour. LOL

C&K*s Mommie replied: I have not noticed, probably because I have only seen a handful of shows. But I will have to pay more attention to it, since I am hooked on the show. I did notice that though, with Fear Factor. That all of the contestants are attractive. And the host was once made a comment to the effect that we (as the viewers) would not want to see an unattractive (body) get into a swimsuit and compete. Something like that he said.

My3LilMonkeys replied: 1 -I yell at the TV and call them morons when they don't take good deals! Then when they end up with no money I keep saying "I told you so! You should have listened to me!"

DH watched it with me for the first time on Monday and he was like Um...you know they can't hear you right? emlaugh.gif

2 - I have never guessed correctly


3 - Any offer $75,000 or over and I'm taking it even with the million dollar offer still on the table. That would be enough money to pay off all our debts (house & car included) and have a nest egg left over. I'm a little too practical - I'd never get picked to be on the show. tongue.gif

C&K*s Mommie replied: HA HA HA!! ROFLMBO!!! emlaugh.gif emlaugh.gif

MomToJade&Jordan replied: All right so I watched it on CNBC tonight because of this topic. I'm hooked. Yes I was yelling at the tv. I am going to have to watch tomorrow night. LOL!
