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

Rick: $
Burt: $
Ian: $

Four-fifths for first place

Ian: You ought to try wagering between $2,001 and $5,600. This will top a $0 wager by Burt while still beating Rick and Burt on the Triple Stumper (should Rick wager to cover Burt's doubled score and Burt wager to cover your doubled score).

Burt: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Ian, hoping that you give the correct response and Rick doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $7,601 to cover Ian's doubled score, but no more than $9,200 if you want to top Rick on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $1,999 and win if both Rick and Ian miss Final.

Rick: Wager $10,401 to cover Burt.
