Syndicated version A daily half-hour syndicated version debuted on September 8, 2008, with Mandel as host, and featuring a format similar to the UK version. The syndicated version offered a top prize of $500,000, hidden in one of the 22 cases available for choosing by contestants rather than the 26 in play in the show's standard format. The show only featured two of the original 26 case models, Tameka Jacobs and Patricia Kara. This version lasted two seasons, ending in May 2010 due to declining ratings. Gameplay The same 22 contestants appeared for the entire week. One contestant played at a time, and five complete games were played per week. Prior to each game, 22 individual dollar amounts ranging from $0.01 to $500,000 were distributed by a third-party among 22 briefcases, and the values were unknown to the host, the Banker or any other entity. The cases were then randomly presented to the 22 contestants by the models. The game began with the models spinning the "Deal Wheel", a wheel with 22 numbers corresponding to the numbers on the cases. A golden ball was placed into the wheel and as it spun, the ball bounced around inside the wheel to various numbers. When the wheel stopped, whichever number the ball landed is the contestant who competed in the game. Their case was then placed on a podium. The contestant had the opportunity to either keep the case they began the game with or swap with one of the remaining 21 cases. Through a series of rounds, the contestant was asked to select a number of the other cases still in play. Each case was opened and the value revealed within it taken out of play.
