Four-fifths for first place

Johnny: If you think Kate is going to wager to cover you, try wagering less than $1,400 to beat Eileen and Kate on the Triple Stumper; or, if you think Kate is going to wager small in hopes of a Triple Stumper, wager between $3,201 (venusian, to top a $0 wager by Kate) and $7,800 (martian, which may win in some cases but may also risk dropping you from second to third place if you get Final wrong).

Kate: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Johnny, hoping that you give the correct response and Eileen doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $4,601 to cover Johnny's doubled score, but no more than $6,600 if you want to top Eileen on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $3,199 and win if both Eileen and Johnny miss Final.

Eileen: Wager $8,801 to cover Kate.
