    For a while Alex looked as if he could be a 20-game champion. Those are the vagaries of the game, I guess.

  2. Jeopardy! lover says:

    Alex Lamb has the highest FJ! bet this season. Tim Moon is tied with Ben Lewis for the biggest amount won in 1 day this season! Keep going Tim!

  3. DC says:

    I’m very impressed with Tim.

    In just 2 days he’s 5/5 on DD’s (just finding them is a sign of board control) and 2/2 on FJ’s. I predict he’ll be a TOC contestant.

    Amazing big win for Tim today just like James holzhauer and Roger Craig with their big wins in their original runs. Building a better mouse trap reminded me of Tom and Jerry since that cat had tried many times to catch the mouse but failed. VJ you remember it fondly right? Looks like Tom needs that guidance of a better mousetrap

    And on my second comment, I just want to say that I hope there are no triple stumpers in Final Jeoardy! this week!

  6. Darius Doom Scott! says:

    Wow! Tim Moon definitely did win a bunch of money! I think he is the new Ben Lewis because of that. $44,401 is still a bunch of money! I hope Tim Moon wins again and gets a spot in the new TOC list. Please know that It is in this Link if you have just lost it again: – Tim might even win a whole bunch of money again by tomorrow.

    Anyhow, congrats to Tim Moon on his winning! I don’t think he will have a winning streak quite yet but all I know is that he is doing a great job at Jeopardy! in this following week. I think that I really like him now and that he is very smart, just like another contestant, named Nikole Villanueva.

    Congrats to Tim Moon in his VERY BIG and VERY LONG $44,401 win and congrats to both Courtney Shah for her 7-day win of $118,558, Nikole Villanueva for being super smart for us heroes, and Jen Jazwinski for her longest win EVER last Thursday, her very beautiful win on Friday, and her very awesome game play from yesterday’s game!

    Wow, what a game between Alex and Tim big bets on DDs and 44,401 is still the highest payday of the season.
