I usually hate watching Jeopardy, but now I watch it every chance I get just to see this guy wail(sp?) on his competition.

It\'s funny how this is the first season where contestants get to play until they lose (before they had a 5 day limit for how long you could stay).
videoholic, I really don\'t think they give away 30 thousand a day usually. You really have to kick your competitions\' butts, and make sure you don\'t miss a lot of questions to get that high, something that usually doesn\'t happen. But I\'m sure Jeoperdy doesn\'t mind -- their ratings are probably much much higher than before. (I jokingly told my family that Jeoperdy was probably giving this guy the answers just to get the ratings up.

)
And I think it\'s funny how he has had the chance to break the record for most money won in a day, but on two different occasions he chose to tie it instead ($52,000 I think). He\'s just playing with us!!! Can\'t he just bet one more dollar?
