How to play Deal or No Deal online

Deal or No Deal is one of the UK’s most popular game shows. Hosted by the inimitable Noel Edmunds and broadcast by Channel 4, it features a single contestant pitted against the shadowy figure of the ‘banker’ as he or she tries to guess the amounts contained in a series of twenty-two identical sealed red boxes.

Each box contains a cash sum, ranging between 1p and £250,000, and through the course of the game the contestant eliminates the boxes one by one. After each elimination the banker offers the contestant a lump sum for the one box that remains in their possession throughout the game. They can either choose to ‘deal’ and accept the money, or opt for ‘no deal’ and continue playing.

Fast-moving, tense, and unpredictable, it’s no wonder that the game has gained a huge following of fans and spawned a number of tribute games. If you fancy trying your hand against the banker then it’s now possible to play the Deal or No Deal game online at SkyVegas, in a game which faithfully follows all the twists and turns of the original.

The online version of the game begins with the player selecting his or her box from the 26 available. You will also be asked to choose your stake up front, and the amount you’re prepared to gamble will have a direct impact on the sums contained in each of the 26 boxes.

To start, simply click on one of the remaining boxes to open it and reveal the amount. You can choose to open each box yourself, or opt for the ‘QUICKPICK’ function that will minimise your nerves by automatically selecting boxes to reveal. Just as in the Deal or No Deal television show, you will be phoned at the end of each round by the banker, who will offer you a tempting sum for the box in your possession.

Choose ‘no deal’ to continue playing or ‘deal’ to accept the offer, end the game and reveal the contents of the boxes.

Deal or No Deal is an exciting, compelling game of chance with the potential to win cash prizes. You can play the online version from anywhere at any time of day. So the question remains: are you feeling lucky…?
