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

Mike: $
Liz: $
Phil: $

Four-fifths for first place

Phil: Think about risking $500 or less, thereby beating Mike on the Triple Stumper (should Mike wager to cover Liz's doubled score). If you also want to beat Liz on the Triple Stumper, should Liz choose to attempt to cover your doubled score, then wager $100.

Liz: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Phil, hoping that you give the correct response and Mike doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $701 to cover Phil's doubled score, but no more than $1,100 if you want to top Mike on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $599 and win if both Mike and Phil miss Final.

Mike: Wager $1,501 to cover Liz.
