Strong form of Shore's Conjecture

Brian: Anticipating that Tate will wager for the tie rather than to cover by $1, and that Darlene will wager everything, you should bet nothing, and you will tie for the win on the Triple Stumper.

Darlene: Risk all $3,600 for the win or tie if you give the correct response (and provided Tate doesn't wager to cover by $1).

Tate: Wager $2,900--wagering any more risks falling behind Brian's wager of $0. If you feel like using Shoretegy, try wagering $101.
