SHOW
DESCRIPTION
The half-hour syndicated version of NBC's ``Deal or No Deal'' is also hosted by Howie Mandel, but the format has been tweaked a bit. Instead of a contestant choosing from 26 sealed briefcases containing a marker for various amounts of cash from one penny to $1 million, 22 cases are in play and the largest amount that can be won is $500,000. Once a case has been assigned to a contestant, the player then eliminates the remaining 21 cases one by one. The chosen ones are opened and the amount of money inside revealed. After several cases are opened, the player is tempted by the Banker to accept an offer of cash in exchange for not continuing the game and possibly winning a larger sum of money.
