Deal or No Deal The Big Draw by Playtech Review

Vale la pena giocarci?

Deal or No Deal The Big Draw suits players who want several decisions in one round, from buying extra balls to taking the Banker's offer. The trade off is that the extras cost more on top of the ticket, and the rules give only a return range of 95.38% to 98.58%.

The prize table and the side game line prizes are shown in the game, not in the written rules, so no amounts are listed here. The price of extra balls is also set in the game.

The game rules give a return of 95.38% to 98.58% (across the whole game), not a figure for each bet. RTP describes a theoretical long term return, not the result of your session.

How Deal or No Deal Big Draw works

Deal or No Deal The Big Draw is a live ball draw based on the TV show, where drawn balls remove prize cases from your ticket until the Banker makes an offer.

1 16 cases

Buy a ticket

Your ticket holds 16 numbered cases: 15 on a 3x5 grid and one as your own case. Before the draw you can also buy prize boosts and up to 20 side game cards.

2 20 balls

Watch the draw

20 balls come out of the machine. Each ball that matches a case on your grid eliminates it, and that prize leaves the game.

3 Offer after 7 cases

Deal or No Deal

Once 7 cases are gone, the Banker makes an offer: take it, open your own case, or buy 5 more balls, up to 35 balls in all.

How a round plays out

After the first 20 balls, if fewer than 7 of your cases are gone there is no offer yet: you can buy a set of 5 extra balls, at a price shown in the game, or the round ends. Once 7 are gone, the Banker makes an offer based on the prizes still in play. Deal ends the round with that offer; No Deal opens your case and pays its prize. If you buy more balls and an 8th case goes, multipliers start to boost the prizes still in play, rising with each case after that: x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8 and finally x25. After all 35 balls, the final offer also lets you swap your case for one still on the ticket.

The prize table

Prizes scale with the price of your ticket and are listed in the game’s paytable, as are the side game line prizes. The written rules do not give the amounts, so this page does not list them. Open the paytable in the game to see the prizes for your ticket price before you buy.

Good to know

Extra balls, prize boosts and side game cards are all paid for on top of the ticket. A prize boost lets you pick one of the ten prizes and a case hiding a boost, and the boost grows with what you stake on it. The side game counts only the first 20 balls: a 3×3 card wins on a full horizontal, vertical or diagonal line. If you do not answer an offer in time, it is declined for you.
