I was told to watch Jeopardy the past week because this Ken fellow was kicking some intellectual ass. It seems Jeopardy has changed its rules and winners can go on for more than 5 days. Well today was day 13 and he won, of course, and has $440,000 from it.

New vBookie event.

Can he make it to 20 days?

Nah, I doubt he can. He's good and all, but I bet that the Jeopardy produces will load up the two most intelligent people they can find in an attempt to beat him.

The sad thing is, if he went on who wantsto be a millionaire, he could have made so much more money, so much easier to.

He wont. I wonder what the chances of that happening are?

Well he's already gone 14 days. But I think he will lose very soon.

idk he is pretty smart and the neat thing is it will take someone really smart to beat him and so on and so forth.

Up until yesterday the guy had won every game before final Jeopardy even took place. The other contestnats could wager all of their cash and still not catch him but yesterday, he had to wager 3000 or the scond place guy could win if he bet all and won. It's just nuts had badly he stomps them in the mud too. It's not like the guy wins by a grand.....oh no. It's complete blowouts, a few were in the negative numbers and couldn't even go one to final.

I just check jeopardy.com and saw this:
Q: Who is the all-time winner?
A: The highest cumulative amount won by a single JEOPARDY! player is $1,155,102 in cash, received by Brad Rutter of Lancaster, PA in 2001-2002.



So it could happen (hopefully :), 5k credits for me then)

That was through the $1,000,000 tourney of Champs though but still impressive.

Gilly

I had an all-nighter the night before and i was watching it and playing on the computer and i went to the couch to get something, and i fell asleep. Instantly...lol

LilPimp
06-25-2004, 04:05 AM
aww man its closed... I think he will win it. Everytime I see him play he's way in the 30,000's everytime and the others are around 7,000. Around the 10th or sumthin day, in the Final Jepoardy a lady put as her answer, "What ever Ken's answer is" lol

Viper
06-25-2004, 04:25 AM
lmao.....I missed that one.

Resident Darkness
06-25-2004, 05:51 AM
Well, she was probably right

Gilly
06-25-2004, 06:11 AM
that was so funny when she did that.
Alex said that Ken didn't look sure of his answer, but, of course, he got it right

Resident Darkness

Friday's game was very close. That musician had him work for his money this time. Though it seemed Ken was a little slow.

peasantlover
06-28-2004, 02:43 AM

Hisham
06-28-2004, 03:19 AM
Did he win today?

Viper
06-28-2004, 07:14 AM
He has 18 as of Fridays game. If he can win Monday and Tuesday, he made it to 20 wins.

peasantlover
06-28-2004, 03:08 PM

06-30-2004, 04:59 AM
He still won 20 with another $40,000.00 added to his winnings.

Hisham

Good lord. This guy is a machine.

Viper
07-22-2004, 01:39 AM
Wow, I just watched him jump up to $11,000, not missing a single question. The others never even buzzed in.

Hisham
07-22-2004, 01:46 AM
You know the funny thing is when they do find someone to beat him, he'll probably set up another long streak of wins and so forth.

Viper
07-22-2004, 01:57 AM
Actually, I think the guy that beats him will last just that one day.

07-22-2004, 02:02 AM

The odd thing is either I am getting really smart or the questions are getting way too easy. This has happened five times in a row.

Viper
07-23-2004, 01:57 AM
That nutball did it again. He had $42,000 going in to final with over $30,000 to play with and only risked $10,000 and won, of course, to tie the record for the thrid frikkin time.

swifferman
07-23-2004, 05:00 AM
thats the record win?

52 K?

cool

Shayde
07-23-2004, 10:59 PM
Well he just pwned the record.

He had $51,400 going into final Jeopardy and won $75,000.


Jeopardy would be noobs to find some one to beat him. They should keep putting on a bunch of stupid people. More people will watch.

How many of you have never watched Jeopardy before hearing about this? *raises hand*

Pro A.
07-23-2004, 11:11 PM
Heh. I had half the final Jeopardy question right. I picked Hamlet. I didn't know the other three.

07-23-2004, 11:35 PM
Wait, you guys already watched todays episode?



$75,000......Ken the Knowledgeable.

LilPimp
07-27-2004, 10:55 PM
The only record they say in game show history that he hasn't beat is. Having a record streak of 56 days. If he goes pass 56 days then there wont be any more records for him to beat.

GnomeSlayer
07-28-2004, 04:51 AM
We have to wait till September to see if he'll keep going :( This season of Jeopardy ended - at least that explains why he constantly refused to beat the record till the other day :D
