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

Lee: $
Bill: $
Barb: $

Four-fifths for first place

Barb: You ought to try wagering between $2,201 and $2,800. This will top a $0 wager by Bill while still beating Lee and Bill on the Triple Stumper (should Lee wager to cover Bill's doubled score and Bill wager to cover your doubled score).

Bill: You're faced with a legitimate choice in strategy. You can either choose to cover Barb, hoping that you give the correct response and Lee doesn't, in which case you'll want to wager $5,001 to cover Barb's doubled score, but no more than $9,000 if you want to top Lee on a Triple Stumper; or bet up to $2,199 and win if both Lee and Barb miss Final.

Lee: Wager $9,201 to cover Bill.
