Who has left Deal or No Deal Island? All eliminated contestants
NBCDeal or No Deal Island made a comeback this February, and with eliminations happening each episode – here are all the contestants who did not make it to the end to win the prize.
Season 1 of the new NBC game show spin-off, Deal or No Deal Island, hit our TV screens on February 26 with 13 new contestants and two Banker’s Assistants.
Deal Or No Deal Island was announced to divert a little from its original format where one contestant will get eliminated each episode.
The series features tough competition including the RHOA alum Claudia Jordan and the Survivor legend Boston Rob. Here are all the contestants who did not make it to the finale of Deal or No Deal Island Season 1.
Brantzen Wong
The young vlogger and poker player, Brantzen, was the first to be eliminated during the game show. This happened while he made an emotional decision to help out the 63-year-old contestant, Kim Mattina – however, as Brantzen was eliminated, Kim ended up winning the episode with a $1 million briefcase.
Jamil Sipes
The podcaster and host, Jamil Sipes, was second to go off the Banker’s Island while playing the hunter-and-gatherer challenge in episode 2.
Episode 1’s winner Kim was chosen to confront the Banker and she emerged victorious in the challenge. She went on to eliminate Jamil from the competition.
Claudia Jordan
Everyone’s favorite model and RHOA alum, Claudia Jordan, did not make it very far into the competition as she was eliminated during episode 3. The Housewife had a brave face-off with the Banker who offered her a deal of $180,000 – however, her case had $500,000 so she was eliminated for making a bad deal.
Kim Mattina
The Sequester Access alum, Kim Mattina, was the fourth to leave Banker’s Island. Kim was the player contestant Brantzen Wong sacrificed his elimination for during episode 1. Unfortunately, she was eliminated two episodes later as Rob’s choice.
Miranda Harrison
While she didn’t walk away with the win, after accepting The Banker’s offer, she walked away from the competition with $40,000 more in the bank. So her reality TV debut wasn’t for nothing.
Alyssa Klinzing
Alyssa, who managed to plot and successfully get Kim eliminated from the competition, got eliminated herself in Episode 7. Her exit just goes to show that karma works twice as fast when it comes to shows like this.
Dawson Addis
While he was eliminated from the competition, it was a result of his own actions. Specifically, he accepted the offer to voluntarily walk away from the season in exchange for pocketing $100,000. A six-figure prize all for himself? Losing doesn’t seem to be that bad.
Nick Grasso
Even though he was eliminated in Episode 9, Nick said in an exit interview that he would love to continue his reality TV on The Challenge. Only time will tell if that dream comes true.
Aron Barbell
Speaking of keeping his reality TV journey going, Aron is interested in starring in The Traitors. After managing to stay in this competition until finishing in fifth place, he should make a great impression on The Traitors’ casting department.
Rob Mariano
Arguably the most recognizable contestant from the entire season, Boston Rob was the first to be eliminated in the finale episode. Before the episode aired, viewers were already sharing their two cents on whether they thought his Survivor background would help or hurt him in this competition. Apparently, the latter were right.
Dr. Stephanie Mitchell
She took a break from her successful career in the health industry, but that sacrifice didn’t equal taking home the win.
Amy Mccoy
Dubbed the villain of Season 1 by viewers, Amy made it clear that she didn’t go into the competition in the hopes of making friends-she only had her eyes on the prize.
“I don’t care who likes me. I don’t care who doesn’t like me. I’m here for my friends and family. And that’s what I did,” she told NBC.
Winner- Jordan Fowler
Not only did she earn the bragging rights of being the inaugural winner of the series, but Jordan managed to take home the cash prize that ended up being the jaw-dropping amount of $1.23 million dollars.
