Maybe this game would be enough for Dean and Jacqueline to make it to the Second Chance.
Dean doesn’t need a second chance. He already won $36K as a champ.
It was the most amazing game of the week. Wild!
This game has to be on the shortlist for Game of the Year at next year’s Jeopardy Honors. It looked like Dean was going to have the same result as yesterday after quadrupling his score. Matthew came all the way back after being down by 16,600 to take a small lead late in DJ! Jacqueline came storming back at the end to get her score into five figures. This was really a great game. Tomorrow is the last game of the season. Whoever wins gets to spend the summer as a Jeopardy champion.
