Four-fifths for first place

Peter: If you think David is going to wager to cover you, try wagering less than $1,400 to beat Adam and David on the Triple Stumper; or, if you think David is going to wager small in hopes of a Triple Stumper, wager between $2,301 (venusian, to top a $0 wager by David) and $6,000 (martian, which may win in some cases but may also risk dropping you from second to third place if you get Final wrong).

David: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Peter, hoping that you give the correct response and Adam doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $3,701 to cover Peter's doubled score, but no more than $6,300 if you want to top Adam on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,299 and win if both Adam and Peter miss Final.

Adam: Wager $7,301 to cover David.
