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

Nancy: $
Gardner: $
Steve: $

Four-fifths for first place

Steve: You ought to try wagering between $501 and $4,800. This will top a $0 wager by Gardner while still beating Nancy and Gardner on the Triple Stumper (should Nancy wager to cover Gardner's doubled score and Gardner wager to cover your doubled score).

Gardner: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Steve, hoping that you give the correct response and Nancy doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $5,301 to cover Steve's doubled score, but no more than $5,700 if you want to top Nancy on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $499 and win if both Nancy and Steve miss Final.

Nancy: Wager $6,001 to cover Gardner.
