Message: [QUOTE="Bigboote, post: 3390270, member: 7631"] I know there are quite a few Jeopardy fans on the board, and this is the week for all of us. James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings, and Brad Rutter are playing in a tournament in a format that we haven't seen. As far as I can tell, they'll be playing two games a night, and scored based on that total each night. First to win three nights is the winner of the tournament. If I weren't so late posting this, I'd include a poll. The tourney is at 8 PM on ABC. I believe each of these players has won $2 million. Ken did it during his run. James came close, and went over 2 by winning the tournament of champions. Brad, IIRC, won during the 5 games limit era, and won the ToC his year, plus TWO million-dollar tournaments. I really don't remember him being that strong a player during his run on the regular game, but he defeated Chuck Forrest and Frank Spangenburg in the first million-dollar tournament, and I think Ken in a subsequent tourney. It may be recent bias, but I'm thinking James will win. OTOH, the last two times I didn't think Brad had a shot, so I'm a better Jeopardy player than I am a picker. [/QUOTE]
