Four-fifths for first place

Ryan: If you think Stephanie is going to wager to cover you, try wagering less than $2,000 to beat Eric and Stephanie on the Triple Stumper; or, if you think Stephanie is going to wager small in hopes of a Triple Stumper, wager between $2,401 (venusian, to top a $0 wager by Stephanie) and $6,800 (martian, which may win in some cases but may also risk dropping you from second to third place if you get Final wrong).

Stephanie: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Ryan, hoping that you give the correct response and Eric doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $4,401 to cover Ryan's doubled score, but no more than $7,200 if you want to top Eric on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,399 and win if both Eric and Ryan miss Final.

Eric: Wager $8,201 to cover Stephanie.
