The amount of disastrous games with box 6 has been commented on a few times, with the suggestion that Laura used up all its luck in one go! Those in the months immediately after that didn't seem to do too badly with it, but look at this, the last 8 games with this box on the table:

Sam (12 Jun): £750
Jackee (18 Jun): £1,000
Steve (24 Jun): 10p
Igor (9 Jul): 2p (box contained 10p)
Lee (31 Aug): £50
Pete (7 Sep): 10p
Caroline (15 Sep): £500
Viv (20 Sep): 50p

Apart from Igor, they all no-dealt to the end and won the amount in their box. 7 out of 8 were blue wins, and the other one was the lowest red!

Seems the curse is finally starting to break!

Highest win since May 24 and highest amount in the box since May 27.

Although it was still an OBW .

I'm not sure bout today, really, I'd say it's more good than bad that box 6 had a decent middle red value in it as it was only a tiny OBW. I wouldn't have been surprised if there'd been huge irony and it'd had the 50K after she dealt!.

Its luck may have improved recently (though it's still been mainly bringing blues to the table) - but what's quite remarkable is how often we've seen box 6 at the table.

It has now appeared 8 times in the last 32 shows. I make that a 1 in 15,934 chance!

yes it's also been carried to the pound table more than any other box ever! It's certainly a very prominent box!

With the exception of Maria's game (£15,000), it's had low amounts in it whenever brought to the table.

Too bad the current Maria didn't play yesterday then ay?

It had £10k in Andrea's game, too.......

After Kate bringing the £250,000 to the table, the curse continues.

The players with box 6:

Andrea, 24 Sep: £9,000(box contained £10,000)
Maria, 25 Sep: £100,000(box contained £15,000, swapped for box 11)
Danielle, 3 Oct: £45,000(box contained £1)
Alicia, 5 Oct: £27,100(box contained 10p)
Brunhilde, 22 Oct: £2,000(box contained £5,000)
Nicky, 14 Nov: £15,000
Ian(Christmas Star), 27 Dec: £50
Sue, 23 Jan: £10,000(box contained 13th member of the 1p club)
Kate, 25 Feb: £21,000(box contained £250,000)

There are the disastrous games apart from the last post.

I believe the last game was a 21k deal for 250k so I would say that's disastrous.

I think you should go back to the year of 2007 7th January A Welsh girl named Laura Pierce said that box 6 was her fathers birthday she wouldn't swap she did not swap and won 250k so how is that box a curse it's like saying Laura is a curse

Laura did win it with box 6, but many other games with 6 have been OBW's, or have contained very small amounts.

Thats true I'm not supertitous but I think that random boxes contain random amounts that could have blues or reds OBW or an OPW

i cant remember the month it was on but there was a lovely chinese girl with her mum, who gave great advice saying 4 and 14 always have big amounts in AND she opened them and blew the game

after that as well they both if not at least one of them had a big power five number in.

very interesting stats!
