Why is anybody saying he took it to be greedy?

BB told them whoever chose the lowest would leave the house. He had NO intention of leaving the house so he picked as high as he could, to stay.

It's very very simple.

He was NOT being greedy; he was not after money, we wanted to stay.

Please everyone who thinks and says this, do look at it logically, pleeeease!

The one who picked least was being asked to leave, so he picked HIGH!

I really hope you get it.

Greedster Sam is being greedy because he wants the £100,000.

And the housemates thought there was more to it, and that his was a lie

Sam is very very simple...couldn't even do this task right.

Sympathy vote Sam's mask slipped and he revealed his true money-obsessed self.

[user104658]

Maybe he did want to stay, maybe he took a punt on it being a lie and it being the person who picked highest that would leave...

Doesn't matter what you say or believe though, the natives have gone wild online, people will say anything to make "their HM" look better and anyone else look bad. Most of the people saying it probably don't believe it.

Its just double standards. If Dexter went first and picked 100k and Sam went last and picked 86k there'd be an uproar about Sam too.

People don't watch the show objectively, they see what they want to see.

And the same people defending Sam would be kicking off about 'greedy Dexter' who thought there was going to be a twist and wanted to walk with the 100k

Forums just get ridiculous towards the end.

If Dexter went first and picked 100k and Same went last and ignored the four prizes higher than the one he picked there would be no way I'd still support Sam.

Yup..ok. Most of those blasting Dex would have totally different opinions if the roles were reversed though, even though they wont admit it

Well its true. Sam was my favourite and Dexter my 2nd favourite before the task, but neither of them would be in my top 4 if I saw them do something like what Dexter did yesterday.

Greedy Sam has been found out by his Deal or no Deal past... he is not even happy with 7 grand a holiday....

[karezza]

Extreme greed shouldn't be rewarded - get Sam out!

Bb did tell them that whoever took the lowest amount would leave the house but they all acknowledged that there was a twist involved.I don't think he was greedy ...he took a chance on taking the £100,000 and it didn't work out.There is not one of them in there that is not in it for the money.

Exactly.

They picked their amounts based on what they thought the twist might be, IMO

It wasn't clear at all whether they thought what BB said was 'the twist' itself or whether they thought there was a twist within the twist, if you know what I mean.

Sam was not being greedy at all he wanted to stay till the final and he will win it.
Dexter just dropped on lucky.

He wanted to stay because he is certain he'll win because he's partially deaf.

Well it appears some are getting at Sam,that is alright though it seems. I actually have both Dexter and Sam in my top 3 still so in fact have a liking for both.

I cannot however possibly see where any housemate would have believed they could be walking out with the full £100,000.
So for me Sam took out the fullest insurance from the info he had that made it as near impossible for him to go.

How that can be perceived as greedy is beyond me and clearly 2 others chose very high amounts too like Sam did, only Dexter actually ended up choosing the lowest of them all and all the cash sums available were there displayed on the board too.

Do you believe though, thta any housemate thought they would seriously be given 88% of the prize fund? Leaving the winner with 12k?

No, I don't. But I don't understand why you then think (as you've said in some posts) that Sam thought he could walk off with 100k?

What I think..is that Sam thought there might be a twist (as they all thought) so went for 100k which would mean he was staying if it was actually the lowest amount being kicked out..BUT if there happened to be a twist (like they thought) and it was the highest going..he wouldnt lose anything and would get his 100k 6 days early

I dont think any of the are greedy, no matter why they chose what they did. I think most people in their shoes would take as much money as possible. Well, maybe it is greed..but its what the majority would do...get as much as possible. Even if it was 50k on offer, I would think most would take it, rather than gambling a 1/6 chance of getting 100k instead. I believe that they ALL go in there for the prize. Winning is a massive bonus obviously, but outright offer any of them (especially the week before the final) the 100k and they would walk.

I think Dexter chose 88k as he thought it was a decent amount to leave with if they were telling the truth, and low enough to be in with a chance if they werent..so yes, tactical..as the tweet said when he made his choice. No idea about Charlie, nor do I care as she just flipflops about and I have given up trying to understand her. Twins were clearly after the money as they said as much. Just they werent clever enough to think about it properly.
