So I wonder if the other jeopardy contestants feel like they are wearing milk bone underwear?

Funny, Wo2 & I were talking about that last night.

We also wondered what kind of a contestant has a shot of beating him. It'd have to be a confluence of items, he loses it all in the frist round on the daily double & there's some kind of a subject matter expert who runs a coupla categories plus a DD (or two) in DJ an obtuse FJ that tips the results.

The guy is a gambler by trade.  He wins big and it's guaranteed he will lose big.  And he will be guaranteed to walk away with a large smile and a stuffed bank account (even after excessive taxes).

Here's an interesting article about his Jeopardy run from The Ringer

 

Quote

“The buzzer never stops being important,” he wrote after his seventh victory. “Of my seven games, I could have lost at least three if I had been beaten on the buzzer just one additional time in a critical spot.” Fellow competitors have asked him what he’s doing right, but he says he’s not sure whether he’s been any help. “I don’t know that I can pinpoint the secret sauce of buzzer timing,” he concedes.

Oldtimer's disease. He couldn't remember that he parked his car in his driveway last night.

I only really got into jeopardy the last couple of years. When I hit 60 I spose. :D

Originally, a contestant who won five consecutive days retired undefeated and was guaranteed a spot in the Tournament of Champions; the five-day limit was eliminated at the beginning of season 20 on September 8, 2003
