Dexter knew exactly what he was doing by picking the 88k....If he honestly wanted to stay he would have picked the 99k....but he picked an amount that would be worth leaving the BB house early for and the right amount picked without raising too much suspicion that he did it deliberately. It was a gamble leaving the 99k, but with Charlie following him he could pretty much predict she would pick it.
Of the four the only two that were selfless were Sam and Charlie. Sam knew by picking the 100k he had no chance of leaving with the loot and Charlie the same. They werent after the money but the ticket to the finals. They were unaware that there was a twist and if BB had let the one with the least amount of money to leave then the prize pot would have been severely depleted so to stay was not about the money but to see the show through to the end.
BB did not reward the most selfless one, but the most selfish....

He knew he was picking the lowest..because he knew all the others were going to go high.
Now I have absolutely no problem with that, if any one of them wanted the money, good on them, I know if I was offered it on a plate I would take it.

It is his lying that is the problem, he was caught out good and proper and then went on to waffle on about different reasons for doing it. The housemates were not happy with it and who can blame them.

He didn't 'know', that would have been impossible. If he'd have thought the twins had picked the highest, he'd have been wrong wouldn't he?

Since one of them would have gone with some money, according to BB, no they don't have the right to be angry. The anger stemmed from Dexter being saved.

It is probably a combination of both tbh, their belief Dexter was to take the money & go regardless of what he has said about it not been about the money & the fact he got a free pass to the final even though he would have taken the money.

You know I dont blame him for picking the 88,800.00... he knew that would be the lowest and was hoping to walk off with it.
However I thought he would have been more astute to think they would not leave the winner with possibly as little as 6,000.00... that aside Dexters mistake was not being honest. He should have held his hands up and just said he didnt think he was going to win so he took the gamble instead of trying to excuse the selfish behaviour.

By studying the form of previous series, the figure to choose would have been
Ł50K or under. It would not have been clever to choose above that, as BB would hardly leave the winner with less than half, IMO. I agree with those who have said that if one of them had gone Ł50K or under, they would actually have go it and walked.

Dexter knew exactly what he was doing he picked a sum nobody would pick as the others picked higher, He was clever then it backfired, When BB announced he wasn't going to get the money you could tell he was gutted and then said thank god, What a liar he is, I cant believe people fall for his tricks.

It hardly backfired. He's got immunity and could win Ł100k now.

Yeah and what a joke that would be, The little rat would be laughing all the way to the bank and laughing at the british public for falling for his games for two months.

Should have let the little sh!t walk with 88k of Monoply money.


That would have taught the little James Hunt, a life long lesson!!!!!

Dexter will never have friends, he's too selfish.

He will only ever have acquaintences that can help him in life.
