It kind of sounds unbelievable. Which court in the country would say Jeopardy couldn't set its own rules? I don't believe it.

Still going.

Finally saw him.

He just blitzes through a category, he can do one in under a minute, before anyone really realises that he is on a roll.

He's at 3/4 of a million dollars.

Maybe he'll set a record as the largest purse ever won in a game show, and get into the Guinness book of records that way!

I wonder what happens if he goes on for 6 months. Surely they will boot him off. There will reach a point, where he might not bring in the ratings.

I missed tonights, but last night the poor woman had no chance. She was deeply in the negative in the first round (I missed the second round though)

She got out on a 2K question.

That was all she got...

The Canuck from Calgary did good, at 8K for the day.

No one even bothered to bet any money in Final Jeopardy except for Ken.

lol

with a minute to go in the second round both of Ken's opponents are in the negative. One guy is now at -$4600!

the one lady managed to pull out of the whole and now has $1000 going into final jeapardy. No chance to win.

How many times has he not had it wrapped up going into Final? Only once that I saw, but I wasn't watching the early part of his run.

Got spare money?

This guy is a jeapardy machine. He's so casual and cool. Nothing phases him.

For a little while in the first round, it looked like he might get some challenge. But many wrong responses later, both of his opponents are now in the negative.

I'm beginning to wonder if this guy will ever lose.

I'm rooting for him to break $1 million though. Just so they can say they can make more money on Jeapardy than in who want's to be a millionare.

Actually, they lost a court case and were required to dump the 5-time champion limit and double the monetary value of all answers, IIRC.

hey! I wanted to be the first to post that. He's up to $920,000.

He came close to breaking the single day record today.
