He rarely misses a question and his strategy gets him out of reach of the other contestants. I do not think he has been touchable in final Jeopardy yet.

He does have the worst smile.
Only once have I seen him not in a runaway - pretty early on. But all that resulted in was him betting it all and getting over $50K that day.
You get picked to go on the show, you're all excited, your family and friends are all pumped up for you, you fly out to LA, and you have to go up against him.
I wonder how far in advance they tape these, do the contestants on day 5 know what they're up against?
Holzhauer went into Final Jeopardy with $72,600, with Rai in second place with $7,000. Holzhauer ran the numbers in his head. He could bet $58,599 without risk of losing the game, but it was important to him to do something for his 4-year-old daughter. He calculated how much he would need to wager to end up with an amount to match her birthday, Nov. 9, 2014. A successful bet of $38,314 would give him $110,914 or 11/09/14.
Some kind of head to head Jeopardy special with the 2 of them would be awesome. The breadth of knowledge is pretty unreal.

The amounts he's winning are ridiculous

Might as well throw in Austin or Buzzy for the entertainment factor
I am loving watching this guy crush it. Fun to watch.

I got a kick out of Austin but Buzzy bugged the shit out of me lol. No idea why on either account.
He broke is own record from the day before. Guy is a freak.

Generally a few months, so when new contestants are brought in, they wouldn't yet know from having seen him on tv.
Get your big chance and get kicked in the nuts!

I was so disappointed that I completely bombed the online test about 6/9 months ago. Now I feel better. Slightly!
Ken Jennings was on for a long ass time....
