The Rules of the game
The rules are simple. There are 26 briefcases containing amounts ranging from 10c to $200,000. Contestants choose one briefcase as their own, then start opening the other cases, held by 26 beautiful New Zealand models in stunning Turet Knuefermann designer dresses. The contestants hope to reveal small cash amounts, as it increases their chances of the $200,000 being in their case.
As each round progresses, the banker tries to tempt the contestants to sell him their case by offering an instant cash amount. The contestant must either stick with the original briefcase choice (‘No Deal’), or make a ‘Deal’ with the banker to accept his cash offer in exchange for whatever dollar amount turns out to be in their chosen case.
In a one hour scramble to secure the best deal they can, contestants must rely on their nerve and luck as their fortune is played out in front of the nation. They take huge risks, they employ strategy, they beg, they soar, they stumble, they trust in their luck, and they make decisions they will remember for the rest of their lives, but their ultimate fate all comes down to one question: Deal Or No Deal?
