At the end of the round, the contestants vote on who they think is the Hustler. The person with the most votes is revealed and eliminated from the game.

In the second round, the contestants face a new set of questions, but this time they are given the opportunity to place bets on their answers. They can choose to bet on themselves or on another contestant, with the amount they bet based on their confidence in their answer. However, if the Hustler correctly identifies the two contestants who place the highest bets, those two players will lose their bet. After the second round, the contestants again vote for the Hustler.

The final round is the most crucial, as the remaining contestants must each make a series of statements about themselves. The Hustler must also make statements, but they are all lies. The contestants must again work together to identify the Hustler, with the person who correctly identifies the Hustler winning the game and the cash prize.
