Four-fifths for first place

Emily: If you think Marc is going to wager to cover you, try wagering less than $3,000 to beat Sean and Marc on the Triple Stumper; or, if you think Marc is going to wager small in hopes of a Triple Stumper, wager between $3,301 (venusian, to top a $0 wager by Marc) and $9,600 (martian, which may win in some cases but may also risk dropping you from second to third place if you get Final wrong).

Marc: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Emily, hoping that you give the correct response and Sean doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $6,301 to cover Emily's doubled score, but no more than $9,100 if you want to top Sean on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $3,299 and win if both Sean and Emily miss Final.

Sean: Wager $11,001 to cover Marc.
