Frank: $
Tom: $
Barbara: $

Four-fifths for first place

Barbara: You ought to try wagering between $401 and $4,000. This will top a $0 wager by Tom while still beating Frank and Tom on the Triple Stumper (should Frank wager to cover Tom's doubled score and Tom wager to cover your doubled score).

Tom: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Barbara, hoping that you give the correct response and Frank doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $4,401 to cover Barbara's doubled score, but no more than $5,000 if you want to top Frank on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $399 and win if both Frank and Barbara miss Final.

Frank: Wager $5,101 to cover Tom.
