Enter three post-DJ! Round scores below to see wagering suggestions for each player.

Steve: $
Bill: $
Frances: $

Four-fifths for first place

Frances: You ought to try wagering between $1,901 and $2,800. This will top a $0 wager by Bill while still beating Steve and Bill on the Triple Stumper (should Steve wager to cover Bill's doubled score and Bill wager to cover your doubled score).

Bill: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Frances, hoping that you give the correct response and Steve doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $4,701 to cover Frances's doubled score, but no more than $5,300 if you want to top Steve on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $1,899 and win if both Steve and Frances miss Final.

Steve: Wager $6,901 to cover Bill.
