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

Mary Kay: $
Tom: $
Michael: $

Four-fifths (exactly) for first place

Michael: Think about risking $800, thereby tying Mary Kay on the Triple Stumper (should Mary Kay wager to cover Tom's doubled score).

Tom: You need to wager $1,601 to cover Michael's doubled score, but certainly no more than $4,799, so as to force Michael to be right to have a chance at winning.

Mary Kay: Wager $8,400, but no more than that: you cannot afford to lose by $1 to a likely wager of $5,600 on the part of Tom.
