What always irks me about these “jeopardy winning streaks” is that prior to 2003 a contestant was only allowed to win five consecutive shows, then they were booted off and three new contestants would come back. Who knows what kind of winning streaks there could have been back then.

They should try to bring them back to continue the streak. That would have been interesting to see.

There are two errors in the comments about James Holzhauer--he finished second in the Greatest of All Time tournament, not third, and his greatest one-day total was $131,127, not "one hundred thirty-one thousand, one hundred twenty-seven thousand dollars." It should have been noted that Holzhauer not only had the greatest one-day total, he had the top 16 one-day totals (Matt Amodeo broke into that list, but Holzhauer still has the top 12).

@ajsy1090 2 года назад

James is the only ultra-champion to win Tournament of Champions as of the 2021 TOC (if may be changed if Matt A will win 30th TOC by next year) and the only champion to win more than $100,000 in a single game six times.

I was really enjoying Matt's winning streak and I was hoping he'd get within striking distance of Ken's record. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Ken, but I thought Matt was so awesome too. What would have been cool is that since Ken is slated to start hosting Jeopardy soon, if Matt hadn't lost, he would have been nearing Ken's record while playing a game hosted by Ken himself.

@tunaXonXtoast 2 года назад

Lets not forget Amodio's streak spanned episodes hosted by Robin Roberts, LeVar Burton, David Faber, Joe Buck, Mike Richards and Mayim Bialik, which is obscene.

@billj4525 6 месяцев назад

I think James is the better player now as he's better every time we see him, which Ken said as well now, but Ken has the records since he's been on there more, and he did beat James the first time as well. In terms of playing against each other though I don't think anyone could beat James anymore, even Ken said he wouldn't dare go against the James that was playing in the jeopardy masters. He said that James was a much stronger James, and winning all those games against that competition is unbelievable. Matt, Amy, Mattea, and many other tough players. Ken said there's no way anyone could have dominated players of that caliber the way James did. He said James works on jeopardy in his free time lol, which was a joke obviously. That said, Ken is respected and should have the GOAT title. James likely won't go enough there enough to take that title. He doesn't care.

You know my favorite one with Ken Jennings when he won 74 games. But he was taken out by Nancy Zerg and game number 75 but basically what I'm saying is some of those games he played were runaways the rest well you know that part. But the bottom line is so now that Ken Jennings has gone from contestant now to hosting Jeopardy I think that is why he made his mark on the game show itself. And now he's about to embark on something that he truly special to him. And I think that this is in tribute and in honor of Alex trebek. And besides that Alex trebek would be proud of Ken jennings. Because he knows what to do and how to do it. But with his 74 game winning streak that was something to behold. He basically took the game show industry and basically said it on its ear.

Now that would be fun. Of course Mark ;The Beast' from The UK version could get a little bit of revenge on James since he was on The Chase in 2014 and with the teammates at the time James beat the Beast and then worked with him on the very show that The beast was beaten on. But also The Beast did say that James was one of the best he went up against in time as a Chaser.

Not true. Jeopardy doesn't officially recognize James and Brad as 2nd and 3rd place finishers for this type of tournament. They only recognize Ken as the winner and was given the GOAT title that he received.
