Jeopardy ProductionsGet breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.There's no truth to the rumor that James Holzhauer is a cyborg created to be the perfect"Jeopardy!" contestant.
"My goal was just to be less nervous than the other players," he said."Whenever I felt overwhelmed, I snapped my fingers three times and pictured a fun snow festival with my daughter." The two"Daily Doubles" in the game's second round are also coveted. He doesn't bet everything then, but he puts a lot on the line.
The Final Jeopardy round gives him one more chance to place a big bet. On the show that aired April 17, Holzhauer bet $60,000 on the category of 20th Century literary figures. The clue was: His first name refers to the ancient district in which you'd find the Greek capital; his surname is a bird."Most 'Jeopardy!' players never think about maximizing winnings," Jennings said."I never did. I just wanted to survive the game and get to play again.
For a show with a long history, his single-day achievements beg for some perspective. Consider it this way: It's like a young Major League baseball player hitting 95 home runs in a season , then following it up with a couple of seasons in the 80s.
Love watching James
He’s not marching, he’s at a full on sprint
after taxes whats that 400k
All he has to do is win three more times the same amount, and it'll be like the cost of a trip to say, Mar-a-Lago. Of course this man does work harder than realDonaldTrump
Him and Jennings both they have enough skill in being contemporary to just know ahead of time what the writers are going to come up. most admirable
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
“Is James Holzhauer single for $500, Alex?”
