The Bank Job online game playthrough

This is a playing of a new online game show called The Bank Job. The show itself will be appearing on Channel 4 in January, and only by playing this game will you be able to apply to be on it!

Sadly, no voiceover to explain the game, but I will place the rules here.

You face an opponent to attempt to take as much money from the vault as you can. You each have 45 seconds to answer questions and will count down chess-clock style.
If you get a question correct, you may choose one of 25 safety deposit boxes. It will either have money, a Steal or nothing at all! Answer a question wrong, though, and you must keep answering questions until you get one right, wasting time.
A Steal will take your opponent's biggest cash bundle from them and add it to your stash. For example, if your opponent found a £5,000 bundle and a £10,000 bundle, the Steal would take the £10,000 bundle. Steals become nullified if your opponent has already left the vault.
After a correct answer, you may choose to remain in the vault and earn more money or leave. If you leave, the opponent has to try and beat your money total in order to leave as well.
If you run out of time, you automatically lose.

The game can be found here: http://channel4.com/programmes/the-bank-job/articles/head-to-head

If you wish to see more videos of me playing this game, let me know and I'll look into posting my biggest wins and heaviest losses.

@keshihead07 that's exactly who i mean as a matter of factl.

[keshihead07]

@Wheeloffortunefan999 Yeah, I think I know who you mean, TheBankersNephew. I took a look at his channel myself and he has some good stuff on there. I'd still post my Chase episode up anyway for others to see :)

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

@keshihead07 and 1 more thing, u might not have to upload your episode of the chase if you do get on, (the same guy who uploaded series 1 of the bank job has been uploading this series of the chase.)

[keshihead07]

@Wheeloffortunefan999 Yes, according to the paperwork I got when I was shortlisted, they do provide transport to the studio and accommodation if it's needed.

@keshihead07 regarding the chase, i know there's no consolation prize for losing, but do they at least fly the players out there?

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

@keshihead07 i like it too, but i DID think that the payoffs would be a bit bigger than they have been during the first 2 shows.

[keshihead07]

@Wheeloffortunefan999 Ah, good. Glad you're able to see the episodes now. As far as the game is concerned, I like it, my favourite round being the second round where you can only bank 2 bundles so there's strategy coming into play. The production side, sadly, I feel is lacking. On tonight's show (episode 3) there were lots of technical problems like George's tablet computer with the questions not working, so there were lots of stops and starts and resetting the clock.
