255:. This game is played over nine rounds. In the first round they play for $ 30 and this amount increases progressively for each round until the final round where it is $ 2000. If each contestant selected the same item as each other, the round is considered a draw and the cash up for grabs will be added onto the next round. In cases where all three items appear by one of three contestants, it is also a draw. Whenever two players select the item that beats the other player, the two winners will get the amounts up on offer each. If one player beats the other two, they will get double amount they were playing for. At the end of the last round, the player with the highest amount of cash will win that amount of cash up to $ 5000 and the runners get $ 500 each regardless of how high their score was.

Six celebrities say that contestant in the studio will get to pick first while the other six celebrities will say that the home viewer will go first. The home-viewer is not in the actual studio but will do their selections over the phone. In the second part of this round the contestant and the home viewer took turns in selecting celebrities. One celebrity has a big $ 100,000 cheque. Another celebrity has a dynamite and the other ten celebrities will reveal $ 500 if selected, which will be added to a player's prize money. This round ends when either player has selected the person with either the cheque or the

the contestant who got the highest cash amount will get to drop another coin. This time each pocket will be given either the word 'WIN' or 'LOSE' randomly. If the coin lands in a ‘WIN’ pocket, that player wins $ 5000 and the other two players will get $ 500 each regardless of their score. If however, the coin lands in a ‘LOSE’ pocket, the person who dropped it will only get $ 500 and the next highest scorer will win whatever their cash amount was. The lowest scoring player will also get $ 500 in this case.

If on any game when the contestant did not win the full $ 5000, the part of the $ 5000 that they did not win will be given to a lucky home viewer. For example, if the contestant won $ 3000, the home viewer will get the other $ 2000.
