Default Anybody else watch deal or no deal just to see their losing faces

So I was talking to a NL degen and he started cracking up because he does the same thing I do. Watch some idiot get a huge offer than go 150k busto. It's worth watching the whole episode just to see some [censored] inbred hick guido from new jersey get some offer of 300k with 5 low numbers and 2 million on the board and have his mutant offspring and troll wife egg him on to open one more case. Then you get to see their drooping OMG I JUST LOST???? faces after they opened like 35 before that one and finally go busto and lose 295k instantly.

SO GOOD

Why the [censored] is everybody in that show living with their miserable idiot mouthbreathing troglodyte parents, yet they won't even take 150k so they can at least buy a cardboard box with air conditioning.

This makes me realize everybody is a [censored] retarded degen.

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT THERE'S SOME REALLY LAME DRAMA A REALLY LAME BANKER. THERE'S A BOARD WITH LOTS OF NUMBERS FROM .02 TO 2 MILLION DOLLARS YOU PICK CASES TO OPEN THEN THAT NUMBER GOES OFF THE BOARD AFTER A CERTAIN NUMBER OF CASES OPEN AND A BANKER GIVES YOU AN OFFER OF A WEIGHTED AVERAGE THAT IS STILL LIVE ON THE BOARD.

IT'S LIKE SOMEBODY SAYING PEOPLE ARE DUMB THEN EVERYBODY DOING DUMB THINGS IT'S GREAT.

In theory this is the case, but the show does occasionally offer +EV deals, espeically towards the end.

...and this of course discounts utility theory

I've noticed a lot of +EV deals.

Like this one chick had 500k, 750k and 1mil. They offered $860 or something.

TEH +EV DEALS ARE USUALLY 2K OR 5 BUCKS AND THEY OFFER 1100 BUT THE PERSON TURNS IT DOWN BECAUSE THEY ARE PISSED AND SAD.
