Jeopardy player - 29 consecutive wins




After 29 consecutive wins, Jeopardy! contestant Ken Jennings is getting close to winning $1 million. After Monday's game, his total winnings stand at a hefty $970,000.

full story

Damn, that's good. He is a computer engineer.
He must be a part time pornographer, because all the good computer engineers are in this field.

It's getting pretty exciting to watch.

I forgot about him.. I watched his run from around 10 to 19 which got him to the 600K range.

The funny thing about the episodes I watched is that he smoked the other contestants. Usually headed into final jeopardy, he had 20 or 30,000 and the other two had a couple thousand MAX.

There was no reason to even play final Jeopardy

They used to cut you off after 5 wins, then you could only come back for "championships". That must suck for all the jeopardy winners past who's winning streak was cut short.

In his interview he stated the most important factor is timing with the buzz-in after Alex finishes the question. He seemed to think that most of the time the other contestants knew the answers but he beat them to the buzzer.

Interesting. I think he gives them too much credit. I've never seen anyone on Jeopardy answer so many questions. He's amazing.

I thought it was hilarious when he was so far ahead he used his final Jeopardy to say
"What is "Hi, Mindy"? (greeting to his wife).

Supposed spoilers say he goes 10 episodes into next season.

I didn't know that fact.

10% Church + 50% tax + 20% family/friends/free loffers= 20% left which the fame will make them divorce and he has to split that too. That sucks

Naw, only parts of it and then only 2-4 months unless you're up North, but even then it's fine if you're not an idiot and dress properly.

I bet his cheating. He probablly implanted a mini-communication system in his ear, which makes him able to hear the answers from an army of 50 scientist on the other end...

Or maby he's just smart...

Neee... He's just cheating!!!

Jeopardy Execs are sure happy, they have increased their ratings greatly.
