:''This article is about the British game show. For the Indian version, see PokerFace: Dil Sachcha Chehra Jhootha. For other versions, see list of international versions below.'' ''PokerFace'' is a British game show broadcast on ITV, where one person is guaranteed to win £1 million. The show was created by Ant & Dec, who also host it. As implied by the title, ''PokerFace'', is based on the bluffing aspect of poker games. The contestants do not necessarily need to get the questions right in order to win, and can bluff their way through the game and pressure their opponents into folding in order to win. The show was originally going to be called ''The Con Test'', but the name was changed just weeks before the show began. However, the Australian version is called ''The Con Test''. Series 1 of the show was aired nightly for seven consecutive days (the seventh show being the final), whilst series 2 saw the show moved to a Saturday prime-time slot, lasted for seven weeks. ==Format== On each show, 6 contestants compete for a prize of £50,000 and a place in the £1 million final. The show opens with "The Grilling". This is where the 6 contestants (5 in some versions) are introduced, and tell the other contestants about themselves. The viewers can see whether a person is telling the truth or not by the 'TRUE' and 'BLUFF' prompts on the screen. After all 6 contestants have been introduced and grilled, the game begins. Each contestant sits in front of a screen, and they can only see their own score. In Round 1, there are 8 multiple choice questions with three possible answers, one of them being the correct answer, worth £500 each. Every contestant will have 5 seconds to lock in their answer. After the answer to each question is revealed, viewers at home can see which contestants got it right or wrong by a series of gold ticks and red crosses appearing on the pictures of each contestant. At the end of each round, viewers at home see the leaderboard, and more importantly, who's in last place. Ant & Dec then ask the contestants in turn how they think they did in that round. After the round has finished, the face-off begins. The contestants stand in front of red buttons that rise from the floor, and a 10-second countdown starts. There are 2 possible outcomes: *A contestant folds by pressing the button. They'll lose their place in the game, but take home with them their winnings. *Nobody folds. The player with the least money will be removed from the game and they'll leave with nothing. If there is a tie at the bottom, then the person who answered their questions the slowest is out. In either case, the losing contestant is briefly interviewed and asked to justify their decision. The contestant is then shown a leaderboard which reveals how the other contestants are doing. There are 5 rounds in total. In each subsequent round, there are just 5 questions, but the prize money increases by £250 each round. During the final, the £50,000 won in the heats was used as stake money, and the amount on offer per question was doubled. In the final of the second series, the final countdown for the £1 million face-off was also extended to 15 seconds. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「PokerFace」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
