00:00Here we are, back together once more, but for the final time.
00:04How did we all get here?
00:06Well...
00:10Seven days earlier,
00:1211 players of exceptional ability were invited to play a game like no other.
00:19We've witnessed beautiful defeats.
00:21The strategy failed. Sorry, guys.
00:23That was very unlucky.
00:25Please think about who you trust.
00:27And ugly victories.
00:30Be nice to each other.
00:32You're not letting me talk.
00:35One by one...
00:36Karma.
00:37...they've been eliminated.
00:39Here you go, Ken.
00:40See you guys later.
00:41Bye, guys.
00:44You've done so well.
00:47In the semi-final, Bex's early era brought an end to her journey.
00:52You have been eliminated.
00:54Bye, bye.
00:56Before Ken outwitted the others.
00:58It's going in.
00:59To win the main match.
01:01Ken, that is such a genius move.
01:03Good job, Ken.
01:06Ken outplayed all of us.
01:08He's earned his place in the final.
01:10Forcing Benjamin, Bedalia and Charlotte to battle it out in a three-way death match.
01:16Oh, my God.
01:17Oh, my God.
01:18Charlotte emerged victorious.
01:20Congratulations to you both.
01:21Bye, guys.
01:22And now two players remain.
01:25It's going to be pure psych cards.
01:27Who have truly earned their place in the final.
01:30I'm going for Voltsy.
01:32The crown.
01:33Who will win the cash prize and be crowned the ultimate genius.
01:38Let the mind games begin.
01:40Playing the game scrambles your mind.
01:41Thank God there's no jail.
01:42It's, you know, you have to be in total control.
01:43Good to be back.
01:44I just wish I'd been able to play more games and be more in the base.
02:06Yeah.
02:07Oh, wow.
02:10She's really ceux and Greg do.
02:11I just wish I'd been able to play more games and be more involved.
02:15Hello, Paul.
02:16No way!
02:20Well, that just shows you why I'm not a genius.
02:22I'll hand you back to the final, Scott.
02:24It may look easy, but being in that pressure-cooking environment,
02:30it's so high-intensity.
02:31You know one wrong move and the game is over.
02:34Ah, Pasha!
02:35Hi, how are we meet again?
02:37How are you?
02:38Good to see you.
02:39Hi, Bash.
02:39So who went out next, then?
02:42Who's the next person that walked through the door?
02:43Shane Watt.
02:44Oh, man-face.
02:48Good.
02:49How are you, man?
02:50How are you doing?
02:52I think Medallia would have been next.
02:53Or Bex.
02:54Or maybe even Ben.
02:56Hello!
02:57What?
02:58I did not think so.
03:00What?
03:03Awesome.
03:04Oh, you look stunning.
03:06Who do you think is in the final?
03:07Ken, absolutely.
03:08Ken and Charlotte.
03:09It seems like Bex has done amazing together.
03:11Bex has.
03:12It could be Charlotte and Bex.
03:13It could be.
03:14I'm really excited to be back and be able to see this unfold.
03:17And I think it's going to be a white-knuckle ride.
03:21Oh!
03:23Bex!
03:24Oh, my God, Alison!
03:26Sorry, I've got to push you in this.
03:29Oh, I'm so sorry.
03:31Oh, my God!
03:32Oh, my God!
03:33Oh, my God!
03:35Oh, my God!
03:36Oh, my God!
03:37Can't it be Charlotte and Ken?
03:38Who are the players?
03:39Ben!
03:39Is anyone surprised?
03:41I love it.
03:42I would just like to say that I threw Ken in the death match when I had the chance all the
03:47way back in main match three.
03:48Are we here to support?
03:49Are we here to just observe?
03:50I think we're here to help.
03:51I think we're here to help.
03:52Seeing the two most incredible minds battle it out for the top spot is going to be really
03:57inspiring.
03:58Players.
03:59Oh, this is exciting.
04:01Hello.
04:02Welcome.
04:03Wonderful to see you all again.
04:04I've missed your wee faces.
04:06Well, not yours, but most of you.
04:08Now, you're probably wondering why I've summoned you back here.
04:11And crucially, if there's been some terrible mix-up and you're actually still in with a shout
04:15for the prize money.
04:16You're not.
04:17But this is the final of Genius Game.
04:20And whilst you aren't competing in it, you do have a crucial rule to play.
04:24Let's get the finalists in, shall we?
04:34Hi, guys!
04:35I'm in the final.
04:36Here I am.
04:37So nice to see all of you.
04:39I'm starting with more garnets.
04:41That might give me a small advantage.
04:43I'm just going to make sure I have control over what I do and how I feel.
04:47And that will be enough to win.
04:49Congratulations, man.
04:50Get you!
04:51I am very proud of myself.
04:53In Genius Game, there are no second chances.
04:56Now it's just me versus Ken and there can only be one winner.
05:00Players, congratulations.
05:03You are in the final of Genius Game.
05:07The final will consist of a best of three death matches.
05:10Two games you've seen before and one is new.
05:13Whichever player wins two of the three games first will be the winner of Genius Game.
05:19And be awarded with a prize pot of 44 garnets worth a total of £44,000.
05:26The eliminated players have returned to offer you their support in today's final.
05:31When we say support, they can each grant one of you an advantage.
05:36Which offers you an edge in today's games.
05:39The eliminated players have returned to offer you their support in today's final.
05:55When we say support, they can each grant one of you an advantage.
05:59Which offers you an edge in today's games.
06:02Finalists, please make yourself scarce whilst your fate is decided.
06:07Fun.
06:10Who are your friends?
06:11Who are my friends?
06:14The eliminated candidates, they can offer support to either Ken or myself.
06:19I feel like I worked hard by playing the social game, whereas Ken took a back seat.
06:24But we have no idea who they'll pick.
06:27There will be people who back my corner.
06:29I think I have played a good social game. Anything can happen.
06:33Eliminated players.
06:35In front of you are ten advantages, represented by glass domes.
06:40Each of these advantages can be used to gain an edge in the games.
06:44You will select your item at random and place it in that player's tray.
06:48It is now time to choose the finalist you would like to support in today's game.
06:52Paul, please step forward. You will pick the first advantage.
07:01I'm backing Charlotte.
07:07I'm going to be backing Charlotte.
07:09I've got a lot of affection and friendship with Charlotte, so I would like her to win, but the game was so intense.
07:17I will be supporting Ken.
07:22Ken has relied purely on his own merit to be up to here.
07:26I will be backing Charlotte.
07:33For this, I'll be supporting Charlotte.
07:35I couldn't affect anyone else to be in the final.
07:38I'm going to give mine to Ken.
07:39I just would like to see a fair fight, but you can't protect them both, can you?
07:45Ken is who I'm choosing to select.
07:48I will be supporting Charlotte today.
07:51I really respect the way she's played, and she's played the game hard from day one.
07:56I'm going to support Ken.
07:58Ken helped me get to the place in the game that I made it to.
08:03It's going to be a great game.
08:05The final advantage will be given to Ken, who has accrued more Garnets in the game.
08:09Players, the first game will begin shortly.
08:19Eliminated players, you will watch from the lounge.
08:22Please take your seats.
08:30This is nerve-wracking.
08:32Finalists, the time has come.
08:40Hello.
08:42Hello.
08:44How much do you want to win?
08:45I feel like I've never wanted anything more.
08:48I do like winning.
08:49That's why I play games.
08:50I do play games to win.
08:51I feel like I wanted to prove something to myself.
08:53Yes.
08:54When I was growing up, my family was all about academic skill.
08:57Like, it was never for a second about anything else.
08:59Yeah. Games have taught me so much about myself.
09:02I used to be a bad loser when I was a kid.
09:04I used to hate losing so much.
09:05And now, kind of, when I win the game, it's to go,
09:08okay, I won it because of not just my mental skill,
09:12but my understanding of myself.
09:14But, like, all the different aspects of genius,
09:16like, it doesn't just revolve around how good you are
09:18at thinking of strategies.
09:19No.
09:20It's like a team game.
09:22I think we're going to have a really good match today.
09:24Me too. Me too.
09:26Well, all that's left is to say good luck and have fun.
09:29Good luck, have fun.
09:30Charlotte and Ken.
09:41Your first death match is same or different.
09:45Yeah.
09:46Ken was fast.
09:49In this game, players will attempt to find sets of three pictures
09:52to win points.
09:53In each round, players will be faced with a grid of nine pictures.
09:58These pictures have three properties.
10:00The first is shape.
10:02Circle, square or triangle.
10:05The second is shape colour.
10:07Blue, red or yellow.
10:10The third is background colour.
10:12White, black or grey.
10:15In every round, players must find three pictures that form a set.
10:19A set is where every property of the three pictures
10:22is either the same or different.
10:25For example, here the shapes are all the same.
10:28The colours of the shapes are all different
10:30and the background colours are all the same.
10:32They form a set.
10:36However, in this example, the backgrounds are all the same,
10:39the shape colours are all different,
10:41but there are two triangles and a circle.
10:45So as the shapes are neither all the same or all different,
10:49this is not a set.
10:52Players have ten seconds to answer on their turn.
10:55If a player spots a set,
10:59they gain one point.
11:01If they are incorrect, they lose one point.
11:04When a player believes there are no sets remaining,
11:08they may call complete.
11:11If they are correct, they score three points.
11:13However, if there are sets remaining,
11:15they will lose one point.
11:18If play passes for six turns
11:20without either player giving an answer,
11:22then the round is over.
11:25The player with the most points after five rounds
11:27will be the winner of the death match.
11:30Best of luck to both players.
11:33I remember this.
11:35Well, you know, it's going to be a great game.
11:37I don't know. I don't know.
11:39I've been running through the potential games in my head
11:41and how I would play them,
11:43remembering what strategies were said,
11:45what strategies were done and which one succeeded.
11:48I'm feeling more prepared.
11:49And when I'm prepared, I'm calmer.
11:51And when I'm calmer, then I perform better.
11:54We'll see.
11:56We will see.
11:57I feel good about the game.
12:00It's a game that I am quite quick at.
12:02Charlotte's strengths lie in thinking more strategically
12:06all the time.
12:07It could be anyone's game.
12:11They're both going to be equally good at the three dimensions
12:13of playing the game.
12:14It's just who cracks.
12:16Here we go.
12:18Charlotte and Ken, earlier today, your fellow players
12:23allocated advantages to each of you.
12:26There are two advantages which can be used at any time
12:29during today's game.
12:31The first of which is invalidate.
12:34The invalidate advantage enables a player to block an advantage
12:38deployed by their opponent.
12:40Amanfie gifted this advantage to Charlotte.
12:45Aha.
12:46That's a good advantage.
12:48The second general advantage is steal.
12:51The steal advantage enables a player to steal an advantage
12:54from their opponent.
12:56Scott gifted this advantage to Charlotte.
13:04There are also three advantages to use only during the game,
13:07same or different.
13:09The first of these advantages is reveal.
13:12The reveal advantage enables a player to reveal how many sets
13:15there are on the round they play it on.
13:20Pasha gifted this advantage to Ken.
13:25I hope Charlotte doesn't take that against me.
13:27The second advantage is double.
13:29The double advantage enables a player to double the points
13:32available in that round.
13:34This applies to both players and to positive and negative points.
13:38Bex gifted this advantage to Ken.
13:43The final available advantage is penalty blocker.
13:46The penalty blocker advantage cancels a player's first penalty
13:50in the round they choose to play it on.
13:52Indy gifted this advantage to Charlotte.
13:56As a player with more garments,
14:01Ken will get to decide who plays first in the first round.
14:04I'll go first.
14:05Best of luck to both players.
14:07The death match will now begin.
14:10Would anyone like to use the advantage in this round?
14:14No.
14:15We will now reveal the picture for round one.
14:19OK, OK, OK, OK, OK.
14:20OK, OK, OK.
14:31Two, five, six.
14:33Correct, one point.
14:37One, three, six.
14:38Correct, one point.
14:40Two, three, seven.
14:43Correct, one point.
14:44Three, five, nine.
14:45Correct, one point.
14:46This could be neck and neck.
14:47They're actually equally good as each other.
14:48There can't be many left.
14:49Complete.
14:50That is incorrect.
14:51Minus one point.
14:52Oh dear.
14:53Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
14:54Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
14:55This could be neck and neck.
14:56Yeah.
14:57They're actually equally good as each other.
14:58There can't be many left.
14:59Complete.
15:01That is incorrect.
15:02Minus one point.
15:06Oh dear.
15:07Oh dear.
15:23There were six consecutive turns with no answer, therefore the round will end.
15:29Oh my gosh.
15:31I think Charlotte could win this one.
15:39It's quite hard, this game.
15:41I like it. That was a fun round.
15:43It feels rough to go complete and not get it.
15:45I took a bit of a risk there and it didn't pay off.
15:49Would either of you like to use an advantage in this round?
15:52Yes. I would like to use my reveal advantage and my double advantage.
15:58I've decided to use my advantages, both of them. I want to make her use her invalidate.
16:03I would like to invalidate his reveal.
16:08That's good. That invalidates out of the game.
16:12All points will be doubled in this round.
16:15Fun.
16:17So he's doubled up.
16:19This double one works for her as well.
16:20He's going to try to put the pressure on.
16:24Players, we will now reveal the picture for round two.
16:27Charlotte, you will start.
16:32Five, four, three.
16:35Correct, two points.
16:38One, two, three.
16:39Correct, two points.
16:41Three, four, five.
16:42Three, four, five.
16:43There's loads in this one.
16:44One, eight, nine.
16:46Correct, two points.
16:50Three, six, eight.
16:53Correct, two points.
16:56Two, four, eight.
16:58Correct, two points.
16:59She's so quick.
17:01There's quite a few here.
17:04One, five, six.
17:06Correct, two points.
17:07Complete.
17:14Oh, no.
17:15This is massive, guys.
17:27Complete.
17:31Oh, no.
17:32This is massive, guys.
17:33That is incorrect.
17:37Minus two points.
17:43Oh, wow.
17:45What is missing?
17:53I've seen it.
17:56It's a question of if it's the last one.
18:03There was six consecutive turns with no answer,
18:09so we will move on to the next round.
18:13Not bad, not bad.
18:14I think your double was good.
18:17I should have used my penalty.
18:18Delete Advantage in that round.
18:20Taking a negative two was pretty heavy for me.
18:23I thought it was very bad when you said complete.
18:26I thought that six points was going to go your way.
18:29We're neck and neck, but Charlotte's a great opponent.
18:32She aims to win.
18:36Charlotte, would you like to use your advantage in the next round?
18:39No.
18:42We will now reveal the picture for round three.
18:45Got it.
18:53Three, four, nine.
18:55Correct, one point.
19:00Just not much there.
19:01I don't think there's any more.
19:13Complete.
19:18Oh, you've got it.
19:20This is big.
19:23That is correct.
19:24Three points.
19:24Oh, I wanted to do it.
19:29I wanted to do it so bad.
19:31There's only one.
19:35I can't believe that.
19:37It's such a risk.
19:38It was such a risk.
19:38It was.
19:39It was.
19:39I should have just done it.
19:40What is minus one anyway?
19:42Yeah.
19:42Tough game.
19:43No.
19:43I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll.
19:45Yeah.
19:46Would anyone like to use their advantages in the next round?
19:48I would like to use penalty blocker this round.
19:52It means that she's got the advantage and that she can stay complete risk-free at least one time.
19:57We will now reveal the picture for round four.
20:03Charlotte will start.
20:07Two, three, eight.
20:08Correct.
20:08One point.
20:11Six, eight, nine.
20:13Correct.
20:13One point.
20:16Two, five, seven.
20:18Correct.
20:18One point.
20:27Complete.
20:31That is incorrect.
20:33However, you did not lose any points as you used your penalty blocker.
20:36Oh, okay.
20:37Hence why I did that.
20:38I see.
20:40It's real like the risk.
20:42Do you know what I can't see anything?
20:45It's so hard.
20:46I'm very proud of you in general.
20:48Really?
20:49That is so sweet.
20:53Okay, I've seen one.
20:55Of course you have.
20:56Is it the only one?
20:57Probably.
20:58So I don't want to press it.
21:00Tell me it.
21:00I'll press it.
21:01Uh, it's...
21:02Maybe.
21:03No.
21:05But I mean, you know, it's a risk either way.
21:07It's one, two and four.
21:10You can press it if you want.
21:11I can press it.
21:12You mean why?
21:12You're going to call complete after?
21:13Yeah.
21:16Might not be complete.
21:18Six consecutive turns have passed with no buzzing in.
21:21Therefore, the round is over.
21:22Anything can happen in this last round.
21:28She's got time to come back.
21:32Players, we will now reveal the picture for the fifth and final round.
21:36Ken will start this round.
21:40Two, four, seven.
21:41Correct, one point.
21:43Two, five, eight.
21:44Correct, one point.
21:45Two, three, six.
21:50Correct, one point.
21:52Three, five, nine.
21:53Correct, one point.
21:57One, six, eight.
21:59Correct, one point.
22:02One, three, four.
22:03Correct, one point.
22:06Four, five, six.
22:08Correct, one point.
22:09Lots here.
22:09There's lots here.
22:10Complete.
22:18No.
22:19No, no, no, no.
22:23That is incorrect, minus one point.
22:27Six, seven, nine.
22:28Correct, one point.
22:29That might be complete to us.
22:31I think it is.
22:33Yeah.
22:34Complete.
22:34That is incorrect, minus one point.
22:37Oh, my God.
22:41She's in quite trouble.
22:47One, five, seven.
22:48Connect one point.
22:50Four, eight, nine.
22:52Connect one point.
22:53Have I done...
22:54Yeah, I've done that one.
22:56Um...
23:01Three, seven, eight.
23:03Connect one point.
23:09Oh.
23:10Uh, one, two, nine.
23:13Connect one point.
23:15That might be it.
23:17I think there's four for each number.
23:19Are you giving me the...
23:21It's probably complete, I think.
23:23All right.
23:23I think it's all...
23:24I trust you, you know, Ken?
23:25Oh, he's being a gentleman.
23:31Uh, complete.
23:33That is correct.
23:34Three points.
23:35You poor guy.
23:37I'm telling you, these guys deserve to be here.
23:41Same or different is now over.
23:42The game ends with Ken's victory.
23:44Congratulations.
23:44Congratulations.
23:45The first death match was very exciting.
23:47It was, uh, eight out of ten on the Kenometer.
23:50Good game.
23:51It was just a thrill.
23:52And, you know, Charlotte was a really tough opponent,
23:54and she did very well.
23:55But I managed to eke out the win.
23:59Whoa.
24:00Two rounds in, I was so...
24:02It is a little bit frustrating,
24:04just because I was on par with him for a good while,
24:06and then it just...
24:08Yeah, he rolled too far forward.
24:10I am currently one down.
24:12But there's no clear winner until the very end of the game.
24:14I just have to believe in myself and just be fully focused.
24:18New game, new rules.
24:22Finalists, your second game is called The Golden Triangle.
24:26Now, is this because our producers came up with it
24:28when hiking across the Golden Triangle mountain range in Myanmar?
24:32Is it a subtle genius game nod to the Golden Triangle of universities
24:36in London, Oxford and Cambridge?
24:38Or is it just because there's a Golden Triangle
24:40stuck on the table it's played on?
24:42You be the judge.
24:43But it's the one about the table.
24:49In this game, each player will be given a set of tokens numbered 1 to 10.
24:56They will take it in turns to place these tokens onto the game board.
25:02They can be placed anywhere and in any order.
25:06Once all tokens have been played, there will be one empty triangle.
25:10This is the Golden Triangle.
25:15The sum of each player's tokens that have been placed directly next to the Golden Triangle
25:20will be their score for that round.
25:22The game will consist of three rounds and points will accumulate across the entire game.
25:30The player with the most points at the end of the game will be the winner.
25:35The Golden Triangle will begin shortly.
25:37It's very tough.
25:39I've not played anything like the Golden Triangle before.
25:43It's completely new to me.
25:44It looks very difficult.
25:45There could be a dominant strategy that I haven't seen yet.
25:49If Charlotte sees the best strategy first, she could really run away with it.
25:53I think this is a very strategic game.
25:56The number you have on your first triangle is going to be very important.
25:59And I think there's a slight advantage for whoever goes second.
26:02This could go anywhere.
26:03Definitely some things you should and shouldn't do.
26:07Really?
26:07Now I'm just trying to think how to maximise it.
26:10Yeah.
26:11I just feel like I have to beat him.
26:16I just have to believe in myself and be fully focused and just take Ken on.
26:27Players, in a best of three death matches, Ken currently leads 1-0.
26:34Charlotte, you must win this match in order to stay in the game.
26:41Ken, as the winner of the previous death match, you decide the starting player in the first
26:48round.
26:49I would like to go first.
26:51Having a lead is a really good position, but Charlotte is a really tough opponent.
26:55It could be anyone's game.
26:56I fancy he wins this.
26:58I think Charlotte's got this one.
27:00Players, there are two advantages available in Golden Triangle.
27:06The first is Duplicate, which enables a player to duplicate one of their tokens.
27:11Alison gifted this advantage to Ken.
27:16The second advantage is Added Value.
27:19This enables a player to secretly add two to the value of any one of their tokens.
27:25As Ken is the player with the most garnets, he earns this advantage.
27:30Charlotte still has the steal advantage available, which enables her to steal an advantage of
27:44her choice from Ken.
27:49If she steals his one, that's mega.
27:53Would anybody like to use an advantage in this round?
27:57I'd like to steal Ken's Duplicate.
28:02Her stealing is a perfect move.
28:03Yeah, no, it's the smart thing to do for Charlotte.
28:05She has to do it.
28:08Ken, please hand over the advantage to Charlotte.
28:12You may play your advantages in any of the three rounds.
28:17Would either of you like to play an advantage in the first round?
28:21Charlotte, Ken, the first round of Golden Triangle will begin now.
28:26Anything could go wrong in the first move.
28:35There could be some secret hidden strategies that are really good, and I just don't know.
28:40Having a complete new game is really worrying.
28:42I've got to figure this out before she does.
28:47Interesting.
28:48Was that a strong position?
28:50I don't know.
28:53Was it not?
28:55One could argue it's one of the stronger positions.
28:58One could argue that.
29:00I think this game is a lot about reading what the next steps will be.
29:05You're trying to ensure the Golden Triangle's in a place where you lose the least or you gain
29:11the most amount of points.
29:13I think there's a lot of different ways you can play this.
29:17Right now, I'm currently following how Ken is playing with his high-value tiles first.
29:24Nice.
29:25But I'm placing them in ways in which they have more map coverage.
29:37She's going 10, 9, 8 downwards.
29:40But I'm trying to think, if I follow this, does that put me at a disadvantage?
29:43Because I went second.
29:45Does that put me at a disadvantage?
29:46I don't know.
29:47It depends how well we place.
29:49I would take my one and just block his 10.
29:51Yeah, I'd go straight in front of it.
29:56Why is this stressing me out so hard?
29:58There's just so many unknowns.
29:59There is so many unknowns.
30:00We won't know what's good until the ground ends, to be honest.
30:03That's true.
30:04Yes.
30:05I see what she's doing.
30:06She's trying to get as many of the empty triangles next to her big numbers.
30:16Mm-hmm.
30:17Control the adjacencies.
30:18Yeah, so it's hard for him to block all of the things that she gets a big number next to.
30:21Even right now, she has so many triangles that need blocking.
30:26Why have you thought of these already so fast?
30:51I've decided this game to play a really simple strategy for the first round.
30:59It's just put your high value tiles in places with three adjacent triangles.
31:04I think that will put her on the back foot because she has to then react to just stay in the game.
31:09Okay, so I have to block out your ten somehow.
31:14I think Ken has got more of a handle on this game than I do.
31:17I think he understands the game better.
31:19I'm very worried about that because there are definitely strategies to this game,
31:23but I just don't understand it at this point.
31:39I understand the logic.
31:53If you play offensively, it means that you're controlling the other player's next move.
31:56You know what they have to play.
31:58I feel like at this point I'm just mitigating losses, you know?
32:14Really?
32:15With positioning.
32:17Right, yeah.
32:18I feel like if I put it here, it's not terrible.
32:22That's probably the play to do, but everything else is mitigation.
32:27Like, there's no attack in this form.
32:31I think she's pretty on edge.
32:34Yeah.
32:35Ken's monopolizing the gaps.
32:36He's got all those key triangles.
32:39I think I just have to put it here.
32:42Yeah.
32:44It's quite tough to get that many points in this situation.
32:49Yeah.
32:50I mean, that's always going to go there at some point.
32:52Yeah.
32:53I mean, this is going to go here, I believe.
32:55Okay.
32:56Yeah.
32:57I'm not sure, actually.
33:00I'll get the one there.
33:01So, it gives you plus four on me if we leave that over.
33:06That's true.
33:07Um...
33:08I'm-I'm mathing that correctly, right?
33:09Mm-hmm.
33:10Four to three.
33:11I'm mathing, mathing.
33:12I will now place the golden triangle.
33:40Charlotte, after round one, you have four points, and Ken, you have seven.
33:48Good round.
33:49Good round.
33:50Oh!
33:51She's a cruel one.
33:53That's not-that's not a disaster, though.
33:55No.
33:56And I think they both learned a lot from this game.
33:59Yeah.
34:00We will shortly begin round two.
34:03Would either of you like to use an advantage in this round?
34:06I'm okay.
34:07I'm okay.
34:08At this point, Charlotte is one nil down, so she needs to use her advantages to just stay in the game.
34:14I'm okay.
34:16I only have plans to use my duplicate, which I've stolen from Ken.
34:20The moment he uses his plus two.
34:22Ken, as the winner of the previous round, you may decide who goes first.
34:26I would like to go first, please.
34:29Round two will begin now.
34:30So much pressure now on this game.
34:31Yeah.
34:32This round, I've decided to place my tied triangles close together to force my opponent to deal
34:44with all of that.
34:46I noticed in the past round that the placement of the tiles wasn't optimal.
34:50So I'm deciding to change where I put my first tile, just to see how much it will affect the board later on.
34:57She seems a lot more composed than she did towards the end of the last round.
35:01Yeah.
35:02She does seem more composed.
35:03Yeah.
35:21Oh, this is so rough.
35:23The math ain't math-ing.
35:27It's just a maths game, isn't it?
35:28It literally is a maths game, and we're talking to, like, a maths.
35:31You're not good at maths.
35:32You're good at maths.
35:33Who said I was good at maths?
35:34Just your vibe, I think.
35:36Because I'm Asian.
35:37No.
35:44Let's just throw this in.
35:45Might as well at this point.
35:52Ooh.
35:53It's a pretty good move for you.
35:54For you, I think.
35:55I'm not sure where to go now.
35:57I think that seven was a brilliant move.
35:59She's going to do them.
36:00Yeah.
36:01That was smart.
36:02She's playing a little better this round.
36:03She's going to win this.
36:06I'm not sure.
36:08I don't know how, but it looks like I don't have enough pieces to actually deal with her high-value ones.
36:17Stuff in.
36:18Going into round two, sort of understand the game a bit more, and I have confidence in my abilities, but Ken is surely in it for the win, as am I.
36:30You're tough, this guy.
36:31Okay.
36:32Yeah.
36:49Doesn't really matter which one I put, right?
36:51I think it might end up being a draw.
36:56I think it might end up being a draw.
36:58Oh, look.
37:00Oh.
37:01Oh.
37:02Nice.
37:16I will now place the golden triangle.
37:21At the end of the second round, Charlotte has 12 points, and Ken has 15 points.
37:27Good game.
37:28Good game.
37:29Wow, that's a result for her.
37:31My God, she's batting again.
37:33I think Charlotte's really thinking because he's playing for either a draw or a win.
37:36She has to play for a win, which is, in fact, he wouldn't even mind a loss of two.
37:41He wouldn't mind that either one.
37:43And she is a duplicate.
37:44All to play for now.
37:54As the previous round was a draw, Charlotte, you may decide who goes first in the next round.
37:59I would like to go first, please.
38:01Before the round begins, would either of you like to play your advantages?
38:05Yes.
38:06Yes, please.
38:08Charlotte, which token would you like to duplicate for the next round?
38:12My 10.
38:13Which token would you like your 10 to replace?
38:16The one.
38:20Oof, look at that.
38:21Big 10.
38:22That's scary, isn't it?
38:23That's a nine-point advantage.
38:25I'm pretty sure that means I don't know how I can make up nine points.
38:28Thank you very much.
38:29You don't.
38:31Yeah.
38:32Pretty powerful advantage.
38:33Yeah, I would say.
38:3410-10.
38:36He has to block both of those now because they're big points for her.
38:39She's super focused now.
38:41Look, the chat's gone.
38:42This is the Charlotte winning face.
38:43I'm telling you.
38:44Yeah.
38:46Ken, you may now go to the dealer room and let the dealer know which token you would like to add two to.
38:55I have a chance in this game.
38:56Using my duplicate advantage and swapping my one for a 10 should give me the edge to win this round.
39:01You just have to remain calm.
39:03Just look at the board.
39:04Play the game.
39:05Beat your opponent.
39:06I would like it to add two to the token eight.
39:13It just seems like a good number because it's not the 10.
39:15The 10 would be very obvious and the nine would be quite obvious and it just seemed like eight's the next best one.
39:21It's a bit like chess really this game.
39:23You have to think ten moves ahead.
39:25At this point, as long as I don't lose this round by more than three points, I will win the whole game because I'm three points ahead.
39:32The final round of Golden Triangle will begin now.
39:50Solid start.
39:51And so it starts.
39:53Let's try something different, I guess.
39:55Don't know what the ramifications will be.
39:58I could have easily done the exact same thing from round one,
40:01but Charlotte has taken my spot from the first round, so it could be anyone's game.
40:07I have a chance in this game.
40:09Just have to remain calm.
40:10There's no panicking here.
40:11Just look at the board.
40:12Play the game.
40:13Beat your opponent.
40:19Ooh.
40:20I don't know, to be honest.
40:32I don't know.
40:37I feel like something's gone wrong.
40:42His head's gone a bit.
40:43Charlotte has now controlled three out of the five key triangles.
40:47She's gonna win this.
40:53Where's my seven?
40:54Oh, my seven's on the table.
40:58I actually messed this up already.
40:59It doesn't feel great at this point.
41:02Charlotte has her pieces down in a really strong position.
41:05It feels like I'm gonna have to spend a lot of tiles just blocking her.
41:16Already having used my high numbered tiles, I can't quite figure out what I need to do to win.
41:21He knows exactly what he needs to do to just not lose, and it makes it hard to come back from a deficit.
41:29It's so hard with that ten in there.
41:33Not much I can do.
41:36I should have put that down.
41:37That was a mistake.
41:40I think you might win it in the third round.
41:43No, because I don't know which tile you added two points to.
41:47That's true.
41:48I could buy anything.
41:51Oh.
41:54This is just super hard.
41:55It's gonna go down the wire.
41:56Wow.
42:18I think it's on your six.
42:21This is definitely a game where every move counts, and positioning matters, and point accumulation also matters.
42:30So now it's just about a battle of who can figure it out faster.
42:40Now I feel like it's on your one.
42:41Actually.
42:42Oh, this has got tough now.
42:54I mean, she has to go for it.
42:55She needs to win this now.
42:56He can still win the game if he loses this round by one or two.
43:00I think.
43:01I think you have a.
43:02I think you have a.
43:03I think you have it.
43:33Oh my God.
43:42I will now place the golden triangle.
43:47Ken, as you placed your added value on your number eight, the final scores are 25 to Ken
43:54and 21 to Charlotte.
43:56Good game.
43:59Good game.
44:00Just two straight wins, no need for a third game, swift and deadly, Ken.
44:05You are the winner of Genius Game, congratulations!
44:07Congratulations.
44:08Thank you very much.
44:09Great game.
44:10Well done.
44:12Well done.
44:14Well done.
44:15Well done.
44:17Thank you very much.
44:18Great game.
44:20Well done.
44:21Well done.
44:23Ken deserves this.
44:24This is his win, and I think he's absolutely brilliant.
44:28I won.
44:29I won Genius Game.
44:30Feeling great.
44:31I never expected to get this far.
44:32Well done.
44:33You played so amazing.
44:34Well done.
44:35Charlotte played very well.
44:36She was a really tough opponent.
44:37I really thought we might go to a third game, but just managed to clinch that win.
44:41Good job, honestly.
44:42Good job.
44:43You were great.
44:44I hope I was good competition.
44:45You were great.
44:46You were great.
44:47I hope I was good competition.
44:48You were great.
44:49You were great.
44:50You were.
44:51I was really happy when he said he was proud of me.
44:58I learned that I am so much stronger than I used to think that I was, and I honestly
45:05couldn't be happy or proud of myself.
45:08Ken, we will exchange your 44 garnets for a prize of 44,000 pounds.
45:16That's a lot of money.
45:17Drinks on you.
45:19He knows when to play quiet.
45:21He knows when to play strong.
45:22He has the ability to back it up as well.
45:24Worthy winner.
45:25Worthy genius.
45:26Well done to all the players who took part in Genius Game.
45:29You and your brains were all truly magnificent.
45:32What a ride.
45:33For now, I shall bid you farewell.
45:40Speech.
45:41Honestly, it's an honour to win, but it was an even bigger honour to play against
45:44all of you.
45:45Genuinely, some of the best people I've ever met.
45:48Wow.
45:50Thank you so much.
45:52I think what makes a genius is being able to understand not only academic things and
45:58other people, but also yourself.
46:00To be a big too, between yourself and yourself.
46:01See for many of your friends.
46:02Have a great job.
46:03For those of you too.
46:04Three or three years.
46:05You learn to meet your friends.
46:06Have a great job.
46:07Have a great job.
46:08Each of you can be a great job.
46:09Have a great job.
46:10You can be a great job.
46:11Have a great job.
46:12If you have a business.
46:13I'm just a great job.
46:14Game's over.
46:32For now.
46:44Game's over.
