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

Four-fifths for first place

Maria: You ought to try wagering between $3,201 and $4,600. This will top a $0 wager by Jeff while still beating Michael and Jeff on the Triple Stumper (should Michael wager to cover Jeff's doubled score and Jeff wager to cover your doubled score).

Jeff: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Maria, hoping that you give the correct response and Michael doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $7,801 to cover Maria's doubled score, but no more than $13,400 if you want to top Michael on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $3,199 and win if both Michael and Maria miss Final.

Michael: Wager $13,801 to cover Jeff.
