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

Marvin: $
Robert: $
Francis: $

Four-fifths for first place

Intermediate form of Shore's Conjecture

Francis: You just can't cover a rational wager by Robert, nor can you win on a Triple Stumper. Improve your situation by wagering everything but a few bucks--and then getting Final right!

Robert: Your score is within 4/5ths of Marvin's, so wager between $2,401 (venusian) and $2,999 (martian), beating Marvin's maximum safe bet of the difference between your scores while still covering against a doubled score on Francis's part.

Marvin: Wager $4,801 to cover Robert. Or, you could try out a Shoretegic bet of $1,801.
