Experts reveal the TV quiz shows you’re most likely to win big on and The Chase isn't number one

Whether you are a TV quiz show fanatic or a casual game show watcher, we all know the frustration of shouting out the correct answers at our telly and thinking “wow, I could totally win this show.”

Betting experts OLBG have revealed that there are actually a few TV quiz shows that give players a better chance of winning the cash on.

Here are the telly game shows that you are most likely to walk away from with cash in hand:

Tipping Point

The game show you are most likely to take home the cash on is Tipping Point, where a stint on telly dropping counters into the machine with the lovely Ben Shephard gives you nearly a 60% chance of walking away with some sort of cash prize.

However, just two winners have managed to bag the double jackpot of £20,000 before, your your general knowledge will definitely be put to the test if you’re looking to win big.

The Chase

Players on The Chase race against the clock to beat one of the genius Chasers in a bid to take home their pot. If you are lucky enough to make it onto the show, you have a 25% chance of taking home some dosh after sharing your prize fund with your fellow players.

The show is the most popular TV game show with 135,000 monthly searches across the UK.

The highest sum ever bagged by a single player on The Chase was a whopping £70,000 and the most won by a team of players was £100,000.

Playing against the brilliant Dark Destroyer, Shaun Wallace, gives you an even higher chance of winning some cash as he is supposedly the easiest to beat!

While Tipping Point and The Chase may be statistically more likely to leave players celebrating a cash win, there are a few shows that could make tactical players even richer.

The odds may not be in your favour to win Jeopardy with just a 0.53% chance of winning, the huge jackpot of £2,472,942 million is certainly tempting.

If you’re looking to become a millionaire, TV classic Who Wants to be a Millionaire gives you close to 8% odds on taking home the seven-figure sum.
