Will that guy on Jeopardy ever lose?

what would? He should be able to do the promotional talk circuit for the rest of his life if he wants additional cash.

He makes a lot of money at his gambling job

he suggested in an interview that it probably wouldn't pay enough

this is what haralabos voulgaris said for a long time too and now he works for the mavs

steady money is good

So this Jason guy...

I swear they're giving him weak competition on purpose

Regardless his strategy is great and he's not getting many questions wrong. 3rd highest cash total after only three weeks or so!

Is this the guy who was the champ on the season opener?

yep. He's at something like 450k now.

Whoa cool

Netflix has just the season openers of each year in a set. It's a trip watching Alex, the sets, and people's hair/fashion rapidly change upon binge watching.

There's a few random episodes of the 70s version on YouTube. Man, the questions, er I mean answers were a lot harder then!

Ken Jennings is interviewed on Andy Richter's podcast and seems like a cool guy.

I didn't realize Eddie (mentioned in 1st post) is blind! Used braile to read the questions. That's impressive. And met his wife after she saw him on the show. Neat.

Holzhauer was on today (tournament of champs).

Holzhauer's twitter avatar makes me laugh every time I see it

Emma (she who defeated Holzhauer) is on today.

Alright this is pretty fun

The questions are kind of extra hard which adds something.

Co-sign. Was about to revive.

Glad my suspicion that James was gonna run away with this proven wrong

Want to make up my own hard questions answers, such as:
Macca ex involved with playback singer seen with fusty NYT film critic

good times

def rooting for jennings, as he is a recognizable human being, whereas holhauzer is a computer program that had to teach itself how to smile.

plus he's really good on Twitter

the sigh of relief after he got the last FJ right is as much emotion as I've ever seen on this show

yeah, he was pretty emotional the whole time. i'm glad he's kicking ass cause i was worried holhauzer would steamroll through, but the first night was fairly dramatic.

Brad constantly throwing himself on grenades probably helped. James can't steamroll if he doesn't hit the Daily Doubles

Brad had a rough night

who won the second match? i only caught the first. jennings getting the stupid "before and after" daily double right was clearly the turning point though it was pretty dramatic that brad made it to exactly half ken's "points" for final jeopardy

those before/during/after clues hurt my head

sorry i meant "james made it to exactly half ken's "points" for final jeopardy" not brad

James won the second game but not by enough to overtake the lead

both the before/during/after & triple rhyme time categories demonstrated just how much good these guys are, even the easy ones would've taken me more time to figure out than you get on the show. and they got them in like half a second

James can't steamroll if he doesn't hit the Daily Doubles

yeah, a huge part of james' strategy was hitting as many daily doubles as possible, which is easy to do when you control the board for nearly the entire game, which he tended to do for most of his run. you can't do that against these guys, obviously.

brad also lucked into daily doubles very early on in both games

is this the first game Brad ever lost to an actual human

poor brad

good news for him is he's only 1 behind, I want this series to go on as long as possible so I'll be pulling for him tonight

weird to see him look so out of his league here, he's arguably the best of the 3

If anything, Ken Jennings is the #JeopardyGOAT just for this pic.twitter.com/Mhjl1Y1zAW
