Deal or no Deal !

Deal or no Deal is a popular game show, made in the United States (originating in Los Angeles). Deal or no Deal has travelled to many different countries (25 countries!), and then adapted by them, adding some of their own ideas. Countries including Australia and New Zealand have taken Deal or no Deal, but it is not as big as the American one, with the highest amount of money much smaller.

The American Deal or no Deal is hosted by Howie Mandel. On the show contestants play and deal for a top prize of o n e m i l l i o n dollars (USD). The show makes people risk it all, at pure random guess. One contestant, from the audience, picks one out of 26 breif cases, which one they think has the big money. They can keep their breif case at the end, or dealing it for another amount, as they eliminate amounts, unfolding breifcases during the show. The contestant has to eliminate the remaining 25 breifcases by choosing people on the stand to unfold them, reveiling the amount of money that he does not have in his breifcase. If the high numbers still stay up on the board, the banker will offer higher and higher amounts, because they do not know if there is a high amount of money in the contestant's chosen breifcase. As long as a large amount of cash hasn't been opened, the banker's offer will go higher and higher.
