Welcome, Kall, to Le Banquier, Quebec's Deal or No Deal. It's patterned after the U.S. version, only it doesn't totally suck !

We've got 26 cases loaded with all kinds of money, from one cent - retired across Canada since 2012 - to our top prize of $500,000. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to pick one of those cases, with the hopes that it contains that amount.

And just like the actual show, the three bonuses - Capital One, Maxi and Surprise - are all in play. Capital One awards a $10,000 bonus, which is added to your cash total, the Maxi Case will give you a trip to an exotic location, and we can't say what the Surprise case holds because it's a surprise .

Don't worry, you're not required to know French to play this game. But since this is Le Banquier, we do things a bit differently. Instead of Deal or No Deal, the question here is "Est-ce que cette offre est acceptée ou refusée (Do you accept or refuse this offer?)?"

Okay, that takes care of the housekeeping stuff. Kall, it's now over to you to select a case for yourself, and then six more for the first round of the game.

Bonne chance (Good luck), monsieur .
