Ever watched this show? Man it annoys me, but I just have to watch the end bit "Split or steal' - plus I'm not home in time to watch the whole thing unless I have a day/afternoon off.
It's probably on a bit too soon after closing time for some
Here's a classic ending
Anyway - as much as the aim of any game is to win, I could never trust anyone in that situation - (OK I may be tempted on an amount I'd lose no sleep over - five squid then!)
So here is what I would say to my opponent in that situation.
"Forget the BS - I don't trust you - I promise you I will not split; I will steal ...... BUT - you have my word, and I'll even sign something, that I WILL share my win with you 50-50. So - you have 2 options - 1. Pick the steal ball and we both win nothing. 2. Pick the split ball and hold me to my word"
Get me on the show!

To use a favourite saying of an old chap I used to work with:
"I can't make second-hand a***holes of it".

Re: Golden Balls
Wow, what an insidious game!
Luckily, we don’t have anything like it over here … yet … but, I’ll be willing to bet that we will soon.
That poor guy. That meek, mousy woman sure slipped him the green wiener. But, I don’t doubt that she’s smiling all the way to the bank.
