Today's episode of Jeopardy... [Spoilers]
- Thread starter KoolAid
- Start date
This guy is an absolute monster. $131k JUST TODAY?!?! Watching him is just incredible. I don't see how he loses unless he just gets bored and throws a game
Holzhauer is something else.
Ken Jennings earned about 2.5 million dollars over a 74 episode run- an average of 33K per game.
Holzhauer has racked up 697,000 over 10 episodes- an average of $69,000 per game.
At this rate, Holzhauer breaks Jennings Jeopardy record in half the time at 36 games total.
Between Holzhauer and Alex Jacob I'm beginning to think this show would be significantly better if they only allowed professional gamblers on this show
I will say his FJs have been a lot easier compared to the other superchamps in his league though. I'm 9 for 11 on them and the two I missed
were both very gettable (imo)
Berlin and Jane Fonda

Spoke too soon. My FJ streak ended with a miss tonight :/ Now 10 for 13.
Alex Jacob, pro poker player, won his ToC with locks in every game

No antenna available? They're pretty cheap. Doesn't help if you can't watch it live though.
Check the jeopardy subreddit for some tips if you can't catch it locally with an antenna. I think you can pick up CBS All Access and spoof your location so you can watch a local broadcast.
Have you tried an antenna?
A coworker told me all about this today. He has such enthusiasm for Jeopardy that the story was riveting.
Yup I have one. I don't get cbs super well with it and the timing of the broadcast is typically not when I happen to be in front of a tv. Would love to pay them to buy a season on iTunes So I could watch before bed. I know there are other ways to get the episodes but I do prefer to pay for content when I can.
If you have an antenna you probably can. One of the local stations probably carries it. It's available on my local NBC affiliate.
Edit: woops, just now saw that you mentioned having one. Thought about trying to move where you have it? Could get a better reception based on location.
I get what you mean and I agree but lol at "finally"
Anyway as a long time every day Jeopardy watcher this is like the best shit ever, dude is unstoppable. I legit feel bad for everyone he goes up against.
Yeah, he dies midway through the episode. It's a huge plot twist which is why OP wanted it behind a spoiler tag.
Top three player of all time, no question. I just wonder how he stacks up between Rutter and Jennings.
I'm sure we will get to find out in the next year or so
And he still had it going away, despite not hitting a DD the entire game. He's not only ballsy, he's good.
You could buy an OTA DVR, but if you have reception problems without it, it will probably be worse with it.
Nah if you want smug, look up Colby Burnett playing Jeopardy. Also throw into the mix Buzzy and Austin Rogers.
I have wondered this before. It's so weird that Jeopardy is hard to watch for cord cutters. Netflix has a small selection of episodes-all from like 2012 for some reason.
I don't think they have anything about it in their rules. Jennings won over 70 games.
They don't. They explicitly killed the 5 day rule to create a situation like this. (tho.... not with this much money being paid out.)
