Ken wrote a book about his trivia "career", in which he makes it clear that he did NOT throw the game. He does acknowledge, however, that he was distracted by the media hype surrounding him, and that probably contributed to his loss. He also says the hype distracted Nancy Zerg, and probably contributed to her loss the next day.

The second longest winning streak so far is 32 wins set by James Holzhauer in 2019. Though he did not even get halfway to tying Ken's winning streak, he came VERY CLOSE to tying/breaking Ken's record of total winnings of $2.52 million but ended up with $2.46 million. Roughly he fell short, $59,000. But made the hall of fame as the new record holder of most amount won in a single of $131,127. The previous record was $77,000 and during his run, James surpassed that amount 15 TIMES! Even if someone surpasses his winning streak, I doubt they'll be able to break his single day record.... unless they have more guts than he did. ;) But just like Ken who gave his defeater a hug for winning, James gave his defeater a high five for winning. Good sportsmanship to them both.

This was only a year after Jeopardy! abolished the rule that you can't return anymore than 5 times.

That rule should have been kept. No one else had a chance during that time.

Extremely stupid rule. Ken Jennings was great entertainment and undoubtedly great for ratings.

Ken has said the saddest part of his loss was having to say goodbye to the crew whom he gotten to know and be friends with.

This always blew me away because it seems like such an easy answer. It’s the only major corporation that works seasonally and tax season is 4 months.

Some of those cheers are obviously from the contestants who are about to go on for the taping of their show & they now realize that their path to victory has gotten a lot easier. I just wonder what the other contestants were thinking when Ken lost: “darn I won’t be the person who beats Ken, but my path to victory seems a lot easier now.”

I have a feeling James will not be able to experience this until he tops Ken Jennings. James is averaging nearly twice the amount Ken was doing in a single day and he's doing it constantly
