Four-fifths for first place

John: You ought to try wagering between $3,001 and $4,000. This will top a $0 wager by Alexander while still beating Sarah and Alexander on the Triple Stumper (should Sarah wager to cover Alexander's doubled score and Alexander wager to cover your doubled score).

Alexander: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover John, hoping that you give the correct response and Sarah doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $7,001 to cover John's doubled score, but no more than $10,200 if you want to top Sarah on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,999 and win if both Sarah and John miss Final.

Sarah: Wager $11,601 to cover Alexander.
