He could reach Ken Jenning's regular game winnings in a week or so. Ken Jennings - Wikipedia

We're "fair weather fans" - started watching J again over a month ago after hearing about James.
1. Won't guess re the poll, but my belief is that the ONLY way he will lose and stop his streak is - running into a smart competitor AND James gets some categories outside of his brain AND loses huge wagers on Daily Doubles or Final. All 3 must happen in one game. 2. Hard to believe that 'leakage' of results don't occur - given that shows running now were taped almost 2 months ago. One would think an audience member at the James LOSING show (if he did...) would blab. 3. Interesting>>> Ken Jennings mentioned that he calculated the most you can win on Jeopardy. It's an interesting exercise. If you assume that one player answers every question correctly, that the Daily Double clues are always hidden on the LOWEST value squares ($200 on Jeopardy, $400 on Double Jeopardy), that the Daily Double clues are the LAST ones chosen each round, AND that the player bets everything on every Daily Double and Final Jeopardy, you end up with: $35,600 after the Jeopardy Round, at total of $70,800 before the first Daily Double of the Double Jeopardy round, $141,600 after the first Daily Double, $283,200 after the second Daily Double, and $566,400 after Final Jeopardy. Considering the improbability of all of those conditions, it's remarkable that James got almost a quarter of the way to the theoretical maximum one-game payout - TWICE.

Anything can be rigged but keeping it off the radar would be hard. And these episodes were filmed months ago I believe. They tape a week's worth at one sitting or something like that.

It has to end sometime, one way or another. They won't let him win for the duration of the show.

James stopped by Emma.
He ends up with 32 wins.
James Holzhauer - Wikipedia James Holzhauer Tracker | Jeopardy.com 4 people had the right answer at 7:00 PM tonight. This may grow though as the poll is open for quite a lot more time. Last edited by Taltarzac725; 06-03-2019 at 06:52 PM. |

Intentional?
Anyone else think he purposely lost? His explanation for losing was rather weak. I am suspicious but I agree with kcrazor... for some reason he grew tired of the game - or just didn't want to be in the spotlight any longer.
