Brad got REALLY lucky that Jennings missed the final question - Brad got the question RIGHT, but bet NOTHING. Ken woulda torched him since he bet a lot of cash. That is, if Ken had gotten it right !!!
The other guy - you had to feel for him. Foolishly bet the farm on the Daily Double the first day and tanked. On the second day, he HAD to bet the farm on the Daily Double again to get back into it - and missed AGAIN !!!
Unfortunately, these were not the three greatest players. Brad and Ken were, but they mentioned in the preliminary rounds that the third best player was not in the tournament since he had previous commitments.
put all three up against the ibm machine and see how they fare. a fourway jeopardy with all of these would be very interesting.
There is no such thing as a “Porshe”. /facepalm
“So what is Rutter going to do with the money? It won’t go towards a new Porshe.”
Dude, if you want to buy a new “Porshe” with that million dollars, I’ll sell you one, two or even 10 for just 100k.
Yes, this was good stuff. Questions were definitely a good bit harder than standard Jeopardy fare.
I was pulling for Roger. The other two are too cocky, and Roger will go all in, this time it cost him.
I was sure Ken would win. He is amazing. All of them were.
What really got me was the way Ken cruised through the ‘two word , one letter different’ catagory. That took a flash hard drive brain.
Roger blew it on the’Daily Double’, a shame as he came out of obscurity in the game to even up the score.
I never watch Jeopardy but I do admire those folks who have total recall. I think that’s the term for people who seem to never forget what they’ve seen or heard that made an impression on them. It must be nice. I’ll bet that college was a breeze to them.
