Deal or No Deal

The first stop in Deal Or No Deal Around The World was Manila, Philippines. The standard $1 million game was played. Notable differences in the Philippines' version of Deal Or No Deal: The models are known as the "26K" and perform a dance number during their introduction. The models didn't move closer together after each round during the game. The case numbers are raised and larger and are the same dark gray color as the case. The Banker is seen standing in the office, rather than sitting. A DJ plays music for a few seconds whenever a low amount case is opened. The top prize is two million pesos (about $50,000 in US dollars). Kris Aquino, the host of Kapamilya Deal or No Deal, appeared onstage with Howie. Mike Levy took the $274,000 deal with four cases left, but his case had $750,000 in it. The Banker offered to increase the bank offer if Patrick Hook ate chicken feet ($1000), fishhead eyeballs ($5000), or balut (egg with a duck embryo inside) ($10,000). Patrick ate the balut and $10,000 was added to the original $129,000 bank offer. Patrick turned down the $139,000 total bank offer and later won $71,000 with three cases left. The Banker put red wigs on the last four models during Patrick Hook's game.
