Four-fifths for first place

Mike: You ought to try wagering between $801 and $1,200. This will top a $0 wager by Kirk while still beating Bruce and Kirk on the Triple Stumper (should Bruce wager to cover Kirk's doubled score and Kirk wager to cover your doubled score).

Kirk: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Mike, hoping that you give the correct response and Bruce doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $2,001 to cover Mike's doubled score, but no more than $3,200 if you want to top Bruce on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $799 and win if both Bruce and Mike miss Final.

Bruce: Wager $3,401 to cover Kirk.
