Four-fifths for first place

Jamie: If you think Janet is going to wager to cover you, try wagering less than $600 to beat Megan and Janet on the Triple Stumper; or, if you think Janet is going to wager small in hopes of a Triple Stumper, wager between $5,201 (venusian, to top a $0 wager by Janet) and $11,000 (martian, which may win in some cases but may also risk dropping you from second to third place if you get Final wrong).

Janet: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Jamie, hoping that you give the correct response and Megan doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $5,801 to cover Jamie's doubled score, but no more than $13,400 if you want to top Megan on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $5,199 and win if both Megan and Jamie miss Final.

Megan: Wager $14,801 to cover Janet.
