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

Judith: $
Steve: $
Beth: $

Four-fifths for first place

Beth: You ought to try wagering between $1,301 and $1,600. This will top a $0 wager by Steve while still beating Judith and Steve on the Triple Stumper (should Judith wager to cover Steve's doubled score and Steve wager to cover your doubled score).

Steve: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Beth, hoping that you give the correct response and Judith doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $2,901 to cover Beth's doubled score, but no more than $5,100 if you want to top Judith on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $1,299 and win if both Judith and Beth miss Final.

Judith: Wager $5,301 to cover Steve.
