Re: Deal or no Deal!
We are going to play a BBW version of this game, If you have never seen the show here are the rules.Game Rules:The basic format of Deal or No Deal consists of a number of cases (21) Each containing a different amount of money. Not knowing the sum of money in each case, the contestant picks one case which potentially contains the contestant's prize. They then open the remaining cases, one by one, revealing the money they contained. At predetermined intervals the contestant receives an offer from the bank (run by "The Banker") to purchase the originally chosen case from the contestant, the offer being based on the potential value of the contestant's case. The contestant must then decide whether to take the deal from the bank, or to continue opening cases. If the contestant decides not to take the deal and reveals low value cases, then the next bank offer is likely to be higher (as the contestant's case is proven not to contain these low values). Alternatively, there is risk in revealing higher values, lowering future offers from the bank. The aim of this system is to try to make an exciting and suspenseful game. Each offer from the bank is typically slightly less than the expected value of the player's case. This is especially so with the first offer. For example, if the player's case is one of $100,000, $200,000, or $500,000, the bank offer will be slightly less than $266,667.Game Strategy:Deal or No Deal and its deceptively simple format have attracted attention from mathematicians, statisticians, and economists as a study of decision making under risk. The goal is too knock out the smaller amounts first resulting in a higher banker total.Game Board:$1 ----------------------------- $1,000$5 ----------------------------- $3,000$10 --------------------------- $5,000$15 --------------------------- $10,000$25 --------------------------- $15,000$35 --------------------------- $20,000$50 --------------------------- $35,000$100 ------------------------- $50,000$250 ------------------------- $75,000$500 ------------------------- $100,000-----------------$250,000----------------------1----------2----------3----------4----------56----------7----------8----------9----------1011--------12--------13--------14---------1516--------17--------18--------19---------20-------21
