Four-fifths for first place

Joseph: You ought to try wagering between $3,001 and $5,400. This will top a $0 wager by Papa while still beating David and Papa on the Triple Stumper (should David wager to cover Papa's doubled score and Papa wager to cover your doubled score).

Papa: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Joseph, hoping that you give the correct response and David doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $8,401 to cover Joseph's doubled score, but no more than $9,200 if you want to top David on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,999 and win if both David and Joseph miss Final.

David: Wager $11,801 to cover Papa.
