I feel a little sheepish. I thought of WW2, instead of WW1. So, I didn’t get Final.
I don’t know how much a bar costs in NYC. I wonder if it took all of the $411k (minus taxes, of course) Austin won to do it! He looks older now, too.
I did not remember Celeste, at all!
I predict that on Friday, Dhruv Gaur will find a Daily Double before Victoria Groce and Ben Ingram.
Well finally after a couple of consecutive Jeopardy games were preempted by basketball games last week, I finally got to see today’s game. Yes, the FJ was indeed a tough one (which I didn’t get), but I knew that Alphonse Capone received those scars from a brawl.
That was a tough final to start the week as we got a triple stumper.
Well, contrary to my guess, Amy Schneider didn’t beat anyone’s quarterfinal score.
$41,200 Matt Jackson
$40,200 Larissa Kelly
$33,601 Andrew He
$26,800 Amy Schneider
………………but she nevertheless did spectacularly well.
I don’t put a ton of credence in final scores, because they’re often dependent on other players’ pre-FJ totals. If Austin had had, say, $20K, then Amy would have had to wager large in order to top him. In tight games, when 2 or more players hit FJ, the final scores are large. (And she was awfully strong tonight, no surprise. Austin is as likable as ever, but he was extra silly tonight.)
All that said, Amy could have safely wagered $9K and passed Andrew’s total had she known FJ making your prediction come true.
