A Scouse player on Deal or No Deal said she had “no regrets” after £100,000 was taken away from her. Donna, from Liverpool, got off to an incredible start but it didn’t end the way she had hoped. The contestant managed to eliminate several low amounts one after other in an attempt to take home one of the whopping cash prizes on offer.
There was just £100 left on the board, and the player had her eyes set on the huge £100,000 which was still up for grabs, along with £75,000 still on the board. Host Stephen Mulhern said: “Honestly, I’ve never felt the room like this” as the banker offered Donna a huge £24,250.
While making her decision, she said: “I’m tempted but no one’s going to win the big one if they don’t carry on.” She added: “If you don”t continue you’re not going to win the big one.” Feeling strong, Donna rejected the banker’s offer of £24,250.
However, her sister Jackie was in the audience and was keen for her to take the whopping offer.

Her lucky streak seemed to have ended and Donna’s gamble didn’t pay off. She watched the large amounts vanish from the board.
She was left with only £100, £1,000, and £2,000 as her remaining options.
After her risky move, Donna said she had “no regrets” and believed everything happens for a reason.
A tense end to the game saw the contestant leave with £2,000.
On social media, viewers were “gutted” for her. On X, one viewer said: “I’m gutted for her. Unbelievable outcome” while a second said: “Gutted for her.”
Stephen Mulhern told viewers at the end of the show: “I thought she’d be going back to Liverpool with £24,250 but that’s Deal or No Deal.”
Deal or No Deal is available to watch on ITV1 and ITVX
