Prizes given to contestants and students : prizes given to contestants

السؤال

Assalamu 'Alaikum. Dear knowledgeable scholar of Islam, In the UK and Ireland television, there is the famous TV game called who wants to be a Millionaire ? It consists of 15 challenging questions to a contestant, each time a contestant answers a question correctly he (or she) will be awarded an amount of money, this amount will be doubled (more or less) if he answers the following question correctly and so on, until he reaches a top amount of one million pounds (or Euro). However, if he gives a wrong answer, he will immediately lose the game, with the chance of losing all or some of the money he already earned. I have no interest in joining myself but this TV series has become popular that many Muslims are watching it, but they do not know what is the position of one who joins, is it Halal or is it like gambling (because there is an element of chance and loss). Many thanks for your expert opinion.
