To be fair, guy was talking about 1p in box 20 in 2 consecutive games and think he was trying to work out 25x25 (or however many boxes there are) in his head. Hes still miles out. Interesting that he kept to his initial wrong assesment even though there were only 8 boxes left. Sort of Monty Hall ish

His daughter said go on Dad your good at maths Sad
