Jeopardy! Thread (No spoilers until after the show EST)

The expression on his face as he listens to the DD clues is awesome. Sets his jaw squints with one eye and raised the other eyebrow.

So hard to judge with the limited player pool. Obviously dominant on buzzer. 11/12 so far on DD and FJ.

He finally wagers somewhat bigger on FJ and misses it tonight.

Leaving some money on the table but his style may have less variance than James.

He has to have some real good ideas on where to find the DDs.

James had his trademark all-in “push”, Brayden has his DD focus face. It’s so great.

I always liked the Alex Jacob sigh, shrug, shake his head and give his answer with complete uncertainty in his voice. When it was pretty much always right (he should have joined the Pulp Fiction watch party).

Unbelievable. Genetic researcher lands on an 800 or 1200 DD in BIOLOGY. She had 6k to brayden’s 12k and she bet 3k

Wow. He could have lost last night. Should have. Lucky his primary opponent had no clue about wagering.

So two weeks of special repeats then one last week of Alex???

If she had a clue about wagering, she would have bet big on the daily double, and then would have had a slight lead going into FJ and would have then been correct to bet big, so the end result would have still be her losing.

True. She’s have to wager poorly on the DD but well on FJ to win.

Strangers things have happened, but excellent point.

The contestants being so close together on today’s rerun gave me anxiety

I only caught a couple of minutes but at the interview section Alex was channeling Barney from HIMYM. Made me think of NPH as host.

I can’t follow the latest Ken Jennings blow up. Beans dad?

Is it so bad they are going to pull his hosting episodes?

One of Ken’s buddies was being a moron on the internet and Ken didn’t have the sense to keep quiet and let it blow over.

Maybe they’ll give it to Brad. I actually think he would be at least as good as Ken. Only downside is that he has that loser stink on him from being so thoroughly dominated on his last appearance.

So he went full Streisand effect?

Wait, his cohost is the psychopath that made his 7 year old daughter try to figure out a can opener for 6 hours before letting her eat?

Oh shit

Man, I really wish I had a chance to check out that thread (and really all of his tweets) before the whole thing was nuked.

Hold on. Canada to the rescue

@Melkerson

Vaush reads through the whole thread, and also goes over tweets where the bean dad guy goes full Nazi.

Ummmmm, this is really bad for Jennings.

Perfect! Thanks!
