Var mısın? Yok musun? is another Turkish version of Deal or No Deal. It is premiere on October 15, 2007, host by Acun Ilıcalı, and produce by Show TV.
There are 24 boxes contain prizes go from 1YTL (about US$0.85) to 500,000YTL (about US$426,000). The set is similar to the French version, but the theme music and the graphics are similar to the US version. The offers are made by "Hamdi Bey", a fictitious character portrayed as a banker; although in February 2008 it was claimed that "Hamdi Bey" was in fact a studio assistant to one of Acun Ilıcalı's former shows, and his name was not Hamdi but Birol; but Acun Ilıcalı dismissed the claims.
The show airs four or five times a week and receives good ratings, ranking from being first to third most watched TV show of the day.
Until March 2008, there was only one 500.000 YTL box; but from that moment and on two more 500.000 YTL boxes were added to the show, tripling the chance to choose the grand prize box, and generally boosting the bank offers.
