Four-fifths for first place, three-quarters exactly for second place

Melinda: Bet $2,000 and you'll wind up the winner (or as co-champs with Janna) as long as Jeff and Janna get the response wrong. (Especially don't be tempted to cover a $0 wager by Jeff, as Janna has the capacity to cover you if you both get the response right and you'll have wagered too much to hope to win if you both get the response wrong.)

Janna: Wager for a tie with Melinda by risking $4,000; trying to cover by $1 may be your doom.

Jeff: Wager $7,501 to cover Janna.
