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

Russell: $
Bob: $
Lynn: $

Four-fifths for first place

Lynn: You ought to try wagering between $2,001 and $6,800. This will top a $0 wager by Bob while still beating Russell and Bob on the Triple Stumper (should Russell wager to cover Bob's doubled score and Bob wager to cover your doubled score).

Bob: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Lynn, hoping that you give the correct response and Russell doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $8,801 to cover Lynn's doubled score, but no more than $9,600 if you want to top Russell on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $1,999 and win if both Russell and Lynn miss Final.

Russell: Wager $11,201 to cover Bob.
