Format
The event started in a studio with six groups of 26 people sitting in the stands. One group was then chosen at random, which moved to the podium. Within the selected group, one person, based on personality, is chosen to be the main contestant. Contestants choose one of the suitcases to be placed in front, and the other luggage is distributed to 25 other contestants on the podium. Each suitcase contains some hidden money (see table on the right).
Contestants start the game by opening six cases. To open the case, the podium player holding the box must first guess the amount they have in their suitcase, winning $ 500 if their guess proves true when opening the suitcase. This process is repeated for the next five cases. After the first six cases, the main contestant is given a "Bank Offer," based (but not on par with) the arithmetic mean of the remaining suitcase: the higher the value in the remaining suitcase, the higher the bid. Contestants must now decide between "Deal" or "No Deal". If the contestant tells the Deal, they win the money on offer, and they should open up the rest of the case to see if they made the right decision. If the contestant says No Deal, then play on. The contestant chose five other cases, followed by another bank offer, then four cases. This pattern continues until all the luggage has been opened. If the player continues to the end without making "Deal", the game ends with their own opened suitcase and the amount in the suitcase won. Exceptions at the end of the game include the introduction of Super Case, Double or Nothing or Chance second cases. See below for more information about them. After each match, a big blue fake check is given to the contestant that displays the amount of money won, but if someone wins one of the green sums, the check will have a green background for the following sums: $ 50,000, $ 75,000, $ 100,000 and $ 200,000. Also, a light blue check is given to contestants for the 50c amount if they win 50c. Sometimes, the money is given directly to a contestant, like a single $ 1 coin if someone wins $ 1.
Because the podium player rules guess what is in their case, contestants are not allowed to exchange cases if they reject any bank offer (unlike most international versions).

Features
The Australian version of Deal or No Deal has a number of special features to make this show entertaining: Super Case, Chance, Double or Nothing, and Risk it All all happening at the end of the game. Due to time constraints, these four are rare. Also, only one of these features is used per episode.
Super Case
Sometimes at the end of the program, Super Case is released. This feature was introduced in 2004. Contestants have the opportunity to defend the deal they make or lose it and take whatever value is hidden in Super Case. Super Case contains one of the following values: 50c, $ 50, $ 500, $ 5,000, $ 10,000, $ 20,000, $ 30,000 & amp; $ 50,000. (In 2005 the amount was, 50c, $ 100, $ 500, $ 1,000, $ 10,000, $ 20,000, CAR & amp; $ 50,000.For Double Deal Friday the amount is, 50c, $ 100, $ 1,000, $ 2,000, $ 5,000, $ 10,000, $ 20,000 & $ 30,000). Super Cases appear in most episodes when contestants take a deal of about $ 10,000 when at least five cases are left on the board, and rarely appear in other circumstances. This means that Super Case offers a 50/50 chance to fix or match a $ 10,000 transaction. If a contestant takes a $ 10,000 deal with less than four cases remaining on the board, Super Cases are rare because there is normally no time left on the show to run it. During the 2006 season, how to tell contestants that Super Case will be brought to change, where not the flashing Super Case panel, the Super Case warning blinks next to the 'Cases remaining' panel, and stays there until it's completely taken out. In 2010 Super Case has been used more frequently.
Deal or No Deal: Fantastic Four
At the beginning of the host game, Andrew, will reveal it is "Fantastic Four day!" Fantastic Four was introduced in 2009 and sometimes happens.
It was first aired back in 2009, where all board angles will be high green. An additional $ 50,000 is to replace the 50c number, while $ 75,000 takes over $ 750 and $ 100,000 is a $ 1,000 replacement. The Fantastic Four's grand prize in 2009 was $ 250,000 . But a year later in 2010, he returned to $ 200,000.

Opportunities
This feature was introduced in 2004. Opportunities are an opportunity for contestants to exchange the deals they take during the game because whatever is in their suitcase. This is rare, and only when the two unspecified residual case values ​​are a very small amount and the sum is at least $ 5,000. For example, the contestant took the $ 6,500 deal, but was offered Opportunity with the rest of the unopened suitcase being $ 750 and $ 10,000. If contestants take up Opportunities, they win $ 750 or $ 10,000, depending on the value that is in their preferred bag. If they do not take the Opportunity, they save their $ 6,500 deal.
Duplicate or Nothing
Double or Not added in 2006. If a contestant is lucky enough to play it, two suitcases (labeled I and II ) are offered to the contestant; one has the word "Double" inside, the other has "Nothing". If contestants choose to play, they must choose one of the cases. If Double is in the selected case, contestants double their winnings. If None in the selected case, they lose all their victory.
The format for Double or No has been changed several times. When first introduced, only one case was brought out (which is the same case as the Super Case). It's just either "Double" or "Nothing" inside, and contestants can choose how much to gamble. If "Double" is inside, contestants win how much they bet as a bonus. If "Nothing" is revealed, they will lose how much they bet from their Agreement. The "two case" format was introduced on June 23, 2006. During the 2007 season, Double or Not returns, even though contestants can no longer choose how much to gamble, instead have to bet their entire Agreement if they want to play Double or Not. If the contestant opens the case with "Nothing", they do not win the money.
Risk All
The Risk All was introduced in 2010. This feature allows contestants who take a deal for under $ 10,000 and only have two smaller amounts of their deal in play, to win a cash prize of $ 15,000. If contestants take All Risks, they can guess the amount that is in their case. If they guess correctly, they win $ 15,000. If they mistakenly guessed, they lost all their victories.
Switch Cases
Switch Case was introduced in 2010. At any time during the game, bankers can offer this switch. If the contestants take it, they can swap cases of their choice for unopened cases on the podium. Usually occurs in the middle of the game.
Cash Dashboard
Dash for Cash was introduced in 2013. Toward the end of the game if the contestant has a maximum prize of $ 5,000 or less, the banker can offer a reward of about half of the current maximum prize on board rather than the normal bid. There are usually two prizes higher than this offer. Contestants can take money and will lose the rest of the game.
Second Chance
The Second Chance was introduced in 2013. At the end of the game on rare occasions bankers can offer a second chance. A dealette gives a button to the contestant, who can pressure him to swap their deal and for any of the amount offered to him during the game, randomly selected.
Mega-Guess
This feature was introduced in 2004. At random intervals during the game, the bank will offer "Mega-Guess", which increases the bonus "right guess" for the next case to $ 2,000, $ 5,000, or $ 10,000. The Mega-Guess is usually used at the end of the game to fill in the remaining time. This usually happens when the podium player is a friend or relative of the main contestant. The end of the Mega-Guess game has adopted a small joke in which the podium player, the main contestant, or O'Keefe himself must ask the banker to give the player a Mega-Guess.
The Mega-Guess feature has been changed several times throughout its history. When first introduced, for a special $ 12 Million Month , it has a fixed winning amount of $ 10,000. When back in the 2005 season, the winnings were reduced to $ 5,000. In the 2006 season, it was changed to the current format, where either $ 2,000 (Blue), $ 5,000 (Maroon), or $ 10,000 (Green) can be won. $ 5000 Mega-Guess has the most common appearance, sometimes appearing several times during the game, followed by $ 10,000 Mega-Guess which will appear once early during the game, and sometimes at the end. $ 2,000 Mega-Guess usually appears for podium players celebrating birthdays or people from countries other than Victoria after a contestant selects them.
In July 2008, $ 25,000 Mega-Guess was offered for the 25,000 case that opened in the event's history, but it was not won.
Daily Gift
This feature was introduced in 2004, but was removed in 2006. One of the briefcases (except for CAR, $ 100,000 or $ 200,000 cases) contains gold-colored dollar signs around the cash value inside the case. The person holding the case (whether it be a podium player or a contestant) receives a $ 500 Daily Gift. The Daily Gift was removed in 2006, though prizes are still awarded several times during the year: in a special episode of Saint Patrick's Day; on Mother's Day; and during the last week of the 2006 season.
Double Deal Friday
Double Deal Friday ran in 2005 but was canceled after 2008. The home viewers were invited to call a $ 0.55 phone number and register the details. Every Friday, home viewers are randomly selected to win the same prize as a studio contestant. Host O'Keefe has mentioned that Double Deal Friday receives more than 100,000 calls every week. Dancing with Bidding (the DoND celebrity version that resigned from the contestants on Dancing the The Stars) follows the same format as Double Deal Friday, except that celebrities do not win prizes.
History
The first incarnation of Deal or No Deal initially debuted in mid-2003 as a one-hour program. Screening on Sunday night, indirectly competing with Nine Network's Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? by offering a maximum reward of $ 2,000,000. To fill in a longer time, the game's initial phase is significantly longer than in the current half-hour format. This includes interviews with people who should put the values ​​into their respective luggage, ensuring that the selection is indeed random. The preliminary round is also longer than the newer formats. Due to poor judgment, the incarnation of the show lasted only one season. In the second episode, a contestant won $ 515,000, which was the largest amount of money ever won in the Australian Deal or No Deal version, and at that time was the largest amount of money won on every Australian TV show.
In 2004 the Deal or No Deal was shortened to a half-hour format and moved to the evening show at 5:30 pm, instantly competing with the Nine Networks The Price Is Right . The incarnation of this event was more successful than the first, due to the increasing number of episodes aired (5 per week during the appraisal period rather than 1 per week). The maximum cash prize is reduced from $ 2,000,000 to $ 200,000 and the number of blocks is reduced from eight to six (200 candidates reduced to 150). Deal or No Deal received a high ranking in the newly revised format. Shortly after the popularity of Deal or No Deal began to increase, Right Price changed the ranking to the same format, where contestants were forced to choose between cash incentives or displays on a regular basis when the price turned on. Nevertheless, the Deal or No Deal continues to grow in popularity, and contributes greatly to the Seven News revival rating (followed directly after Deal or No Deal ). The popularity of the show led to the Nine Million Dollar of Fortune and the half-hour Millionaire Wheel Player match? Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? canceled. However, the ratings of Deal and No Deal went down due to the popularity of the Nine Network show rival Millionaire Hot Seat.
The Nine Network rivals over the years have produced various game events for the 5:30 pm timeslot, famous game events including Burgo's Catch Phrase hosted by John Burgess, and The Price Is Right > Organized by Larry Emdur. Both games succeeded in ranking, in 2005 Right Price canceled, because Larry Emdur signed a contract with Seven Network, Emdur became the Wheel of Fortune host, which was canceled just a few months later because declining ratings, after Wheel of Fortune was dismissed, Seven Network introduced Deal or No Deal at 5:30 pm, which was a high success in the rankings, and overtook the Nine Bert's Family Feud Networks, fired in 2007 In 2008, Nine Networks revived the Wheel of Fortune; it was renamed the Million Dollar Wheel of Fortune, but the ratings were bad, and resulted in the event being fired after a month. After the Million Dollar Wheel of Fortune, the Nine Networks introduced Millionaire Hot Seat , which has resulted in a much higher ranking, and since 2010, has begun to overtake Deal or Not There's a Deal .
This game shows ratings mainly contributes to the news news bulletin 18:00 which immediately airs after the game.
Many changes to the game have been made over the years, especially to attract viewers from other game shows, including luggage values ​​(see below), and the addition of many new game features (see Features). During 2004 $ 12 Million Months , Super Case, Chance and Mega-Guess features were introduced, and have been a recurring segment ever since. In 2005, a car was introduced as a reward (replacing the $ 25,000 cash prize from the council in 2004). The cars have been Peugeot 307 from 2005-2007 (briefly replaced by Renault MÃÆ'Â © gane II in 2005), Peugeot 306 in 2008, Peugeot 207 in 2009, Peugeot 206 in 2010 and Peugeot 207CC from 2011 onwards, all valued more than a cash prize of $ 30,000. In 2006, Double or Nothing was introduced to the show. Since the 2007 season, the game format has remained the same. The only changes in the 2007 and 2008 seasons were the logo changes in 2007, the early quiz removal (which determines who will be the main contestant) and the on-screen graphics and music that has been updated several times. Double Deal Friday was dropped in 2008. In 2009, not only the layout of the money board and cases changed, but also, once the case was opened, instead of closing it and putting it on the table, the case was left open to inform the contestant about which case still in the game.
There are four main prize winners: Dean Cartechini on June 17, 2004, Anh Do in a special celebrity on September 19, 2007, Leanne Benbow on June 2, 2010 and Chris Doyle on August 23, 2011. When someone won $ 200,000, glitter was released into the studio, while holding a check for $ 200,000.
The biggest winner ever was Nathan Cochrane who won $ 515,000 at The Deal in 2003 on the second episode. At that time, the grand prize was $ 2,000,000.
On July 3, 2012, a contestant was offered $ -150 after beating $ 200,000 in his first selection along with $ 75,000 and $ 50,000 in the first half, making it the lowest bank bid in the history of Deal or No Deal. This happens during Deal or No Deal's Fantastic Four specials.
From September 16, 2013, after nearly a decade of the show that provided the lead-in to Seven News, the event was moved to 5pm on a weekday to make way for Million Dollar Minute.
From October 2013, Seven continues to repeat the air until The Chase Australia replaces both and Million Dollar Minute in September 2015.
Deal or No Deal: Double Shot to win the top prize
In the selected episode of the 2008-2011 season, Channel Seven decided to add another $ 200,000 to the board as part of Double Shot. The host, Andrew O'Keefe, revealed that it was a "Double Shot" day and asked Marjorie Q. Smythe (wife of the evil banker, Walter P) to replace 50c with the second $ 200,000 amount. This only happens when Channel Seven competes against the Channel Nine game in the 5:30 pm time slot, e.g. The Million Dollar Wheel of Fortune, which aired in 2008 at 5:30 pm, is aired simultaneously with Deal or No Deal, except in QLD when the Million Dollar Wheel starts at 5:00 pm, as Extras airs at 5 pm : 30 pm. Millionaire Hot Seat, which aired in 2009. (also during "Dancing with the Deals" and "Footy Finals Fever"). Also, for podium players, should they say that there is $ 200,000 in their suitcase, they should specify whether it's normal $ 200,000 or The "Double Shot" $ 200,000 to prevent them in 1 out of 13 occasions on guesswork the correct $ 500 or Mega-Guess $ 2,000, $ 5,000 or $ 10,000. Specially aired in 2004, in celebration of the 200th episode of the program, two $ 200,000 cases were instituted; however, the second $ 200,000 was a $ 1,500 reimbursement over 50c.

Andrew O'Keefe emerged as himself in the Australian comedy Kath & amp; Kim , repeating his role as host of Deal or No Deal . The character Sharon Strzelecki (played by Magda Szubanski) appears as the main contestant and Kim Craig (Gina Riley) appears as a podium player. Sharon won $ 20,000 directly from her case (although her winning record was never shown). Some changes were made for fictional games compared to real-life game games, as Kim was never given a chance to guess his case, and Sharon claimed in the episode that she became a contestant by having the "fastest finger" (Early quiz dropped from the 2007 season, and a fictional game that clearly displayed version of 2007). Reference to the real life version was made when O'Keefe told the girls that it was "almost time news" as a real-life show then broadcast before the news.
