Would the monty hall variable change problem work in the game show deal or no deal.?

I fully understand the monty hall problem, and ask me to explain it for you if you would like, but I'm not sure if it will work in the game show deal or no deal. I think it will but correct me if I am wrong

No it would not work on Deal or No Deal. The reason is because nobody knows where the money is, so all the eliminations are random (to include the elimination of the $1,000,000 prize). It would work if the host knew which case had the million dollar prize, could not fool the contestant and told the contestant something along the lines of "choose any of the remaining cases except for number 18!"
