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

Tom: $
Dave: $
Meg: $

Four-fifths for first place

Meg: You ought to try wagering between $3,801 and $4,600. This will top a $0 wager by Dave while still beating Tom and Dave on the Triple Stumper (should Tom wager to cover Dave's doubled score and Dave wager to cover your doubled score).

Dave: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Meg, hoping that you give the correct response and Tom doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $8,401 to cover Meg's doubled score, but no more than $13,400 if you want to top Tom on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $3,799 and win if both Tom and Meg miss Final.

Tom: Wager $14,701 to cover Dave.
