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

Donna: $
Mike: $
Elaine: $

Four-fifths for first place

Elaine: You ought to try wagering between $2,401 and $6,000. This will top a $0 wager by Mike while still beating Donna and Mike on the Triple Stumper (should Donna wager to cover Mike's doubled score and Mike wager to cover your doubled score).

Mike: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Elaine, hoping that you give the correct response and Donna doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $8,401 to cover Elaine's doubled score, but no more than $12,000 if you want to top Donna on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,399 and win if both Donna and Elaine miss Final.

Donna: Wager $12,601 to cover Mike.
