Split = 100% guarantee of money. Final. :yep:

How did you work that out?

Split = 50% Chance of money.

If you steal and they split you get all the money.

If you steal and they steal you get nothing. (but if you split and they steal you get nothing anyway!)

So stealing is the only guaranteed way of avoiding looking like a moron :smile:

There's a 100% chance of the money being won if you choose to split. I assume this is what Stricof meant.

So you'd rather neither player got anything?

I'd rather the other person didn't walk away with the money.

depends on how much money and whether the person opposite seemed trustworthy or not, I'd rather split but if I have doubts then I'll steal. Someone who lives round the corner from me who I used to work with went on and got nothing cos they both tried to steal about £500

steal, if the other person chose split, id say, fair enough ill split after the show, and i really would.

if they chose steal, then you dont lose anything

the only way to make sure, you both get something, or nothing is to steal...

This doesn't make any sense at all. There's still a large amount of money up for grabs, so it's unreasonable to say, "It's just a game."

But they wouldn't benefit at my expense. If I split and they steal, I don't get anything. If I steal and they steal, I don't get anything.

Well not at your actual expense, more at your loss. As in they benefit and you don't.

Inspirations have I none

Well I would like to split, the problem is if the other person steals and I split, I go home with nothing. If we both steal I go home with nothing. Hence really stealing is a win win scenario. Even if the other person steals, it just prevents either of the two people concerned getting any money so it's basically the same as if I had split and the other had stole. If I split, the most I'd go home with is half the prize money anyway.

I'd generally split though, as I probably wouldn't have the heart to steal, I'd feel to guilty. Plus the reward money will generally be dire (I doubt the reward money would ever reach the lofty heights of £100 000). I doubt it even reaches £20 000 often with the strange system they've put in place (having said that I've only watched it once, lol).

Again, I'm not losing anything. If they choose to steal, I won't get any money whether I choose to steal or split, so I might as well split so that one of us gets the money.

Seems like the guys are generally a bit nicer when it comes to the decision! Not what I would have thought actually, but then I'm bitter and twisted and somewhat man-hating at the moment!! :grin:
