Enter three post-DJ! Round scores below to see wagering suggestions for each player.

Martin: $
Sara: $
John: $

Four-fifths for first place

John: You ought to try wagering between $2,401 and $3,600. This will top a $0 wager by Sara while still beating Martin and Sara on the Triple Stumper (should Martin wager to cover Sara's doubled score and Sara wager to cover your doubled score).

Sara: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover John, hoping that you give the correct response and Martin doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $6,001 to cover John's doubled score, but no more than $7,200 if you want to top Martin on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,399 and win if both Martin and John miss Final.

Martin: Wager $9,001 to cover Sara.
