|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | August 7, 2006 | Edna Amarille | No Deal | 1,000,000 | Edna claimed that omens from her late daughter prompted her to defend her chosen briefcase (#7) all the way to the end. The other unopened amount was PHP10,000 and the banker's last offer was PHP499,000. |
| 2 | September 25, 2006 | Elsa Payumo | Deal | 1,127,000 | Elsa Payumo donated her winnings to the Buklod ng Pag-ibig Community to complete the roof of its building. |
| 3 | December 29, 2006 | Terry Lim Cua | No Deal | 2,000,000 | Terry is the first male millionaire, and coincidentally a bank customer service representative. The banker spoke to him over the phone and congratulated him while Kris Aquino asked for Cua's necklace and shared the closing announcement of Deal or No Deal with him in the episode. The final three unopened values were the three highest prizes (PHP2,000,000, PHP1,000,000 and PHP500,000) and the final two briefcases contained the two highest amounts. The banker's last offer was PHP1,400,000. |
| 4 | February 19, 2007 | Robert Jaworski | Deal | 1,000,007 | Former senator and PBA player Robert Jaworski has the largest amount won by a celebrity player, although his briefcase contained PHP2,000,000. The amount of PHP1,000,007 was offered twice. In fact, some of the other offers either contain his former jersey number (7) or have its digits add up to it. |
| 5 | July 10, 2007 | Jennel Montero | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The last unopened briefcase contained PHP500,000, and the banker's last offer is PHP600,000. Jennel is the first millionaire of the second season, and the third ever person to win a seven-digit prize in a No Deal situation. |
| 6 | August 6, 2007 | Allen Paul Aguada | No Deal | 2,000,000 | The last two unopened amounts were the two highest prizes (PHP2,000,000 and PHP3,000,000). The banker's offer is PHP2,250,000, the highest in the show's history. Allen was still declared by Kris as "Lucky" because his final position resulted after removing the last two small values still in play (PHP5 and PHP150). According to Allen, his father was supposed to join, but the father urged him to join instead. |
| 7 | September 5, 2007 | Jerhan Mama-O | No Deal | 2,000,000 | Jerhan is the first winner of at least P1,000,000 from Mindanao, from Marawi City. His choice of briefcase (#2) is purely by gut feel and while he did eliminate the two other seven-digit values in the first round, he firmly believed on the would-be contents of the briefcase to the end. As Jerhan is Muslim, the Banker's last offer is PHP999,999, which was based from the 99 names of God according to Islam. Jerhan also correctly predicted where the two other unopened values (PHP1 and PHP250,000) were hidden; he eliminated the PHP1 briefcase before the Banker gave his final offer. |
| 8 | October 2, 2007 | Rene Lamprea | Deal | 1,250,000 | Although omens from his late younger brother compelled him to choose briefcase #5 (October 5 and the five-peso coin said to be from the late brother), the hare-lipped contestant decided to follow his wife's advice to take the offer. His chosen briefcase contained only P400 (with the other amount being P3,000,000); he was also the first regular contestant since the show's time slot was moved to 6:00pm; seven celebrities (two as a team) played before him, two of them accepting six-digit offers from the Banker. |
| 9 | October 16, 2007 | Melody Macol | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The Banker's final offer was PHP499,000, the unopened briefcase contained PHP250,000 (also the amount at which the house was pawned). Coincidentally, her chosen briefcase was Briefcase #9, the same numbered briefcase Kris chose when she played four days before and won only PHP50. |
| 10 | October 22, 2007 | Aiko Melendez | Deal | 1,000,000 | According to the actress and Quezon City 2nd District Councilor, her prize is for the benefit of several patients in the East Avenue Medical Center. Although her briefcase contained PHP3,000,000, the other unopened amount is PHP50,000. She is also the second celebrity player to win at least P1,000,000. |
| 11 | November 6, 2007 | Kim Atienza | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The Banker's final offer is PHP400,000, which according to him, is the life span in years of the quahog clam. The other unopened amount was PHP25,000. |
| 12 | December 12, 2007 | Maria Rosario Odabel | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The last unopened amount is PHP250,000. She kept all six-digit amounts and 1,000,000 after opening the last small amount (PHP75). |
| 13 | November 3, 2008 | Anthony Solis | No Deal | 1,000,000 | He opened many amounts lower than P100,000 in the first two rounds, which continued until the third when he opened the P300,000. Even though he opened the P2,000,000 (not surprising held by model Charmel de Asis), his luck still continued that by the penultimate round, he opened the last small amount of P150. After he opened the P200,000, he was given the final offer of P490,000, which he refused. The last unopened amount was P100,000. He was the first millionaire of the third season. |
| 14 | November 17, 2008 | Rey Beltran | Deal | 1,100,000 | He opened the final low amount, P50, in the eight round, leaving the P200,000, P400,000, and P2,000,000 still in play. He was offered P780,000, which he refused. In the final round, the P400,000 was opened, and this amount sufficed. His chosen briefcase contained P200,000. The reason for the non-exact amounts was because he was tithing some of his winnings for the Christian fellowships he was supporting. |
| 15 | November 25, 2008 | Aiko Melendez & Candy Pangilinan | No Deal | 1,000,000 | Playing as a team, the two actresses had a final offer of P345,001, which they refused. They incidentally picked one of the five briefcases that each contained P1,000,000. The last unopened briefcase contained P10. Their game was their second appearance in the show; each of their first games ended in bad deals, albeit taking home six- and seven-digit prizes (see above) respectively. The two were jointly declared as the 15th millionaire and the first team to win a seven-digit prize. |
| 16 | December 1, 2008 | Jhaphet Flordeliza | No Deal | 1,000,000 | He was first offered P466,000 with P50 and two P1,000,000 briefcases still in play in the penultimate round, but refused. When the second to the last P1,000,000 was opened, the Banker lowered his offer to P150,000. Upon advise from his father, Jhaphet said "No Deal," and won the P1,000,000. He was the first and only regular contestant to become a millionaire for the 2008 Christmas Edition. |
| 17 | December 11, 2008 | Arnel Pineda | No Deal | 1,000,000 | He was the second ever internationally-known celebrity to play in the game (after apl.de.ap less than a year before) and the fourth celebrity to win the million pesos. He won this amount even after opening the four other million-peso briefcases and refusing the final offer of P249,999. He was in the Philippines to spend his Christmas in his homeland while his band, the American band Journey, was taking a tour break. He is the third celebrity millionaire. |
| 18 | January 12, 2009 | Judy Ann Santos & Ryan Agoncillo | Deal | 1,000,030 | After the eighth round, with P4,000,000, P1,000,000, and P75 still in play, they were offered P1,150,000, but the Banker promised to increase the offer to P1,500,000 if their manager Alfie Lorenzo would join them; they both refused to both offers. After opening the P1,000,000 in the final round, they were offered this amount, which they accepted to play it safe after the loss of their final "safety net." Their chosen briefcase contained only P75. The additional P30 referenced the total of the prizes two previously in won each of their first appearances (Judy Ann won P25 and Ryan got only P5; both went No Deal). They intended to use their winnings for their campaign to have the movie Ploning included in the official nominee list for the Best Foreign Language Film in the 81st Oscar Awards. |
| 19 | January 28, 2009 | Maribuena Noche | Deal | 1,075,600 | Her game went so well that only her mother was brought out to cheer her on as based from experience relatives were known to reverse the luck of one's game. After the eighth round, when she eliminated P10, she was offered this amount with P1, P500,000, and P4,000,000 still in play. She accepted the offer upon the suggestion of her mother. Unbelievably, it turned out that her briefcase contained only P1 with a potential final offer of P275,000 after seeing that the potential final briefcase she would have opened contained P4,000,000 (unsurpringly held by Charmel de Asis). The extra P75,600 was a reference to Maribuena's mother's medical bills. |
| 20 | February 2, 2009 | Gerald Anderson & Jake Cuenca | No Deal | 2,000,000 | Initially having a bad game by having the P4,000,000 opened in the first round and revealing many six-digit prizes afterwards, they later had a game so good that they were given a final offer of P838,000, with the P2,000,000 and P75,000 still in play. They refused the offer and won the two million. Gerald and Jake, leading men of the show Tayong Dalawa, were the third pair of returning celebrities to win a seven-digit prize as a unit and the one with the largest winnings. Also, their separate first appearances were in team games with different partners: Gerald with Kim Chiu in the first season and Jake with Roxanne Guinoo in the second. Probably to prevent any misunderstanding, all of the companions brought in to cheer and help them were men. |
| 21 | February 16, 2009 | Christopher Viray | Deal | 1,600,000 | After eliminating the last low amount, P400, he was soon given large six- and seven-digit offers, starting with P750,000, and then P1,050,000, both of which he refused. After eliminating P500,000, he was offered this amount, with P4,000,000 and P75,000 still in play. Upon the advice of his companions, especially his elder brother (Robert Viray), he accepted the offer. However, despite the fact that his chosen briefcase contained the top prize of P4,000,000, he currently holds the distinction of winning the highest Banker's offer that has been accepted by a contestant in the show. |
| 22 | August 18, 2012 | Kean Cipriano & Enchong Dee | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The Banker's final offer was P420,000 and the other unopened amount was P10. |
| 23 | December 29, 2012 | Janice de Belen | No Deal | 1,000,000 | The Banker's final offer was P563,855 and the other unopened amount was P25,000. |
So far, only Terry Lim Cua, Allen Paul Aguada, Jerhan Mama-O, and the team of Gerald Anderson & Jake Cuenca won the largest amount, which is PHP2,000,000.

“The two real political parties in America are the Winners and the Losers. The people don’t acknowledge this. They claim membership in two imaginary parties, the Republicans and the Democrats, instead.”
