'Only way is up' Singha jibes Chase contestant for taking minus offer
Yaz was the final contestant to go head-to-head with Paul Sinhaman and only managed to win £2,000 in the initial cash builder round.
She was then offered a lower offer of minus £5,000 or the higher offer of £75,000.
Her team mates Craig and Simon encouraged her to take the lower offer as they really wanted her to play alongside them in the final round.
Although conflicted about the decision, Yaz decided to take their advice and played for minus £5,000.

However, those tuning in at home were outraged with her move and took to Twitter to vent their frustration.
One fan of the ITV gameshow tweeted: "Hate it when contestants go for a negative offer, seems so selfish #TheChase."
