Time to make some predictions. How much is he going to earn in total during this run, and over how many games?
I say $1,880,000 in 26 games. And I'll pick him to beat Jennings and Rutter at a tournament in a couple of years. I'd like to see a week long contest with just the three of them. |

One more: Whoever finally beats him will not go on to win 5 games in a row.

A couple more:
He'll own the top 10 spots on the single-day earnings leaderboard before the end of his streak. Someone else is going to put up a $100,000 day next season. |

Have they made Final Jeopardy a lot easier over the years? I'm seeing that Ken Jennings only got it 68% of the time (51/75). James Holzhauer is 13/14 so far (93%). I realize it's a slightly different skill set from the rest of the game since it usually involves figuring out something that none of the contestants actually know but where there's one possible response that totally makes sense once you think of it. Still, it seems like Jennings would be doing a lot better than 68% these days, no?
edited to add: I found the data on % correct FJ responses by all players. I guess the answer is maybe. Probably 68% compared to 56% is fairly representative of Jennings, but 93% compared to 62% for Holzhauer is not something he could keep up in the long run (e.g., over 75 games). Season 20: 56% Season 25: 53% Season 30: 49% Season 35: 62% Last edited by darwinbulldog; 04-24-2019 at 11:11 AM. |
