I’m interviewing 4-time Jeopardy! champ Buddy Wright soon. Leave me a comment with your questions for him!
Fun and interesting match today. The contestants:
Carl Bradshaw
Dawn Hart
Mike Nelson
Just like last time I blogged on an episode, a contestant answered the first two clues right, then found the Daily Double. In this case it was Mike, and he found it in The Ivy League. He wagered all of his 600 on this clue: “The school now known as this was located in Elizabeth for 1 year and Newark for 9.” (Hey, that’s where David Madden went to college!) Mike and I got it right.
At the first break, Mike and Carl had 3200, while Dawn had 1400. At the end of the round, Mike and Dawn had each doubled their scores, while Carl’s stayed the same. However, Carl answered 4 of the first 5 clues in the Double Jeopardy round correct before finding the first Daily Double in Stately Flowers. He had 6800, Mike had 6400, and Dawn had 2800. Carl wagered 1200 on this clue: “Illinois’ flower is the purple this, which is practically saying the same thing twice.” Carl had a good guess, but was wrong.
Dawn then started to shine. She led with 8000 when she found the next Daily Double in Language of Love (you provide the language). Carl had 4400 and Mike had 6000. I thought Dawn showed a lack of aggression (a foreshadowing, as it turned out) when she wagered “just” 1000 on this clue: “S’Agapo.” She got it right. At the end of the round, she had a big lead with 14600, while Carl had 8000 and Mike had 8400.
The final category was Olympic Host Countries. This was the clue: “3 of the 6 countries that have hosted both the summer and winter Olympics.” All three contestants got it right. Carl added 7500 to his score, and Mike added 7601. Dawn inexplicably wagered nothing. Nothing! Her lead had been so big she didn’t need to wager much to win. Mike said on the Jeopardy! message boards that Dawn said after the show she isn’t confident in sports categories. I say “Who cares?”; the category doesn’t matter in a case like this one. Anyway, it’s too bad. Mike, then is your new champion. Let’s see what he can do tomorrow.
My Coryat score today was 22000. I swept Acting Sequelitis and Stately Flowers. My weakest categories were Astronomy and Kiss. Carl’s Coryat was 9200. Mike’s was 8400, and Dawn’s was 14800.
