  • As cases are opened, the banker offers to buy out your remaining chance for a set amount, which you can accept or decline to keep playing.
  • The case values are random, so it is mainly chance, with your only decisions being whether to take an offer or keep going.

Qualifying

You first play a qualifying round to earn a spot in the main game and set up the values in play, before the briefcase round begins.

Briefcases and the banker

In the main round, prize values are hidden in cases. As cases are opened, a 'banker' makes offers to buy out your remaining chance.

Example. You decide 'deal' to accept the banker's offer, or 'no deal' to keep going and open more cases, hoping for a bigger value.

Risk and decision

The tension is in the choice: take a sure offer now, or risk it for what remains. The values left shape each offer.

A game of chance

The case values are random, so outcomes are down to luck and your deal/no-deal choices. Set a budget and use responsible gambling tools.
