“This is the highest one day total ever on Jeopardy!” James Holzhauer: *Hold my beer. Like ten times.*

Alex Trebeck: Will it never end for this talented young man? Not for another 37 games, Alex. XD This was roughly the halfway point for Ken Jennings' Jeopardy! run.

I was 16 when this first aired. I remember the night very well, because it was a few days before my 17th birthday and about two hours later, I got into a huge fight with my parents. I don't remember what the argument was about, but I'll always remember the final jeopardy question/answer!

From the looks of the other scores this must have been a game where Ken really dominated, probably getting almost every question and coming up big on daily doubles.

@thesoftparade1990 5 жыл бұрын

I remember watching this when it first aired. I remember a few highlights. Ken dominated the first few categories. I remember one of the categories being who's the Mrs. He also got a daily double right. I think it is "who is william H. Macy?". At one point when no one knew the answer I remember Alex saying "hey guess what I get to give a response" when no one knew an answer. Even if he lost the 23,600 he would still have been at 27,800. Higher than the others combined.

@Johnadams20760 5 жыл бұрын

he actually had 53 or 54,000 just before that but I think got 2000 dollar one just after at thee end. he could haave had 55,000 actually. before final jeoparly. so roger craig who got 77,000 well he had 40something thousand going in, nt even close. he just risked a lot more. but I think the most 2nd place if doubled would have been maybe 7000 or so. I think they had mid 3000s before bet , so he could have wagered 44,000 safely without losing, and if he had, he would have 95,000

If Ken wagered $40,000 instead of $23,600, he would have this record until James Holzhauer broke it with $100,000+. Or he could have wagered at least $25,601 and he would have had the record until James was on.

As far as contestants with the most money every won, most games ever won and most money won in a single day, Ken Jennings is in the top 5 of all 3 categories. He's in first place with the most games ever won...obviously and he's in second place with both most money ever won and most money ever won in a single day.
