Wagering calculator

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

Brett: $
Kristin: $
Ashok: $

First equals twice third with second crushing third

Ashok: Wager all $6,400 if you have confidence in your Final-solving abilities or Kristin's wagering abilities. If neither, a wager of $400 is good for at least the extra prize potential of a second-place finish (if Brett misses Final) and can possibly score the win if Kristin goofs in wagering. Importantly, this latter wager ties Brett should Brett wager $6,800 but give the incorrect response.

Kristin: While a wager of all $9,800 may be a rational possibility (since it has the potential to tie Brett if you both get Final right), your more optimal choice is to wager $3,000.

Brett: Wager $6,800--wagering any more risks falling behind Ashok's wager of $400.
