Both players secretly choose a Savant, predict whether they would be right or wrong on one final question, and then make a wager not to exceed their current total. Unlike ''Pick Your Pony/Brain'', both contestants can pick the same savant in this round. As you'd expect, a correct prediction adds the wager to their score while a wrong prediction deducts it. After this round, the player with more money keeps it (even if it's $1) while the losing player gets nothing.
