Game Rules
Players participate in pairs, each at the very beginning of the transfer immediately gains 1 million pounds in 40 packs of 25,000 pounds each. After that, each pair will have to answer eight questions, four of which are accompanied by four possible answers, the next three - three, and the last - only two.
To answer the questions, participants are given 1 minute, during which they must bet any amount on one or more answer choices. You can only put money so that one of the options (hatch) of the proposed remains free. The hatches of the wrong answer options are opened, and all the money put on them falls into the “pipeline”. The game ends in the following cases:
- If players lose the full amount, they drop out of the game;
- If the players correctly answered all 8 questions, they take with them from the studio the amount that they managed to save.
Changes to the June 2013 Rules
- Now can participate from 2 to 4 players
- Participants need only answer seven questions: Questions 1-4 - with 4 answer choices, questions 5-7 - with 3 answer choices.
- The game has an additional question - when answering it, participants can double the amount earned or lose everything. On the additional question - only 2 answers. An additional question can be waived.
