    [Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for the January 15 episode of Jeopardy!]

    A Jeopardy! Champions Wildcard Event participant says that they deliberate to lose the sport that aired on Wednesday, January 15, and his reasoning is sensible.

    Taking part in within the Champions Wildcard Event on this episode had been returning champ Drew Goins (who’s on this competitors following his Second Likelihood win the week prior), Jay Fisher, and Aiden Orzech. Goins had a runaway lead within the first two rounds, with Goins at 2,200, Fisher at 200, and Orzech at -200 on the first break and the second-break scores being Goins at 5,000, Fisher at 2,400, and Orzech at 400. Orzech had a troublesome time catching up and ended up with -2,400 heading into Ultimate Jeopardy. However Fisher staged a formidable comeback and closed the hole to stop Goins from successful with a runaway. Fisher’s rating heading into the ultimate was 15,400, and Goins’ was 23,400.

    It was an anticlimactic Ultimate Jeopardy as a result of nobody wagered something because of the match’s format. In Champions Wildcard, the participant with the very best cumulative greenback quantity wins, so there’s an additional incentive to not lose any factors. Moreover, the highest 4 non-winners with the very best cash totals will advance to the semifinals as wildcards.

    “I count on there could also be some grumbling on the board about gameplay on this match format. I went into the sport not making an attempt to win,” he wrote. “From my analysis I posited that $14,000-$16,000 would give me an important probability of advancing as a wild card if I didn’t win. Once I wagered on the DDs my aim was to not get forward of Drew however to get to $14,000. The potential hurt from lacking was greater than the potential good thing about getting it proper.”

    “Drew was Drew. A powerhouse on the buzzer with an incredible vary of information,” Fisher added. “Aiden had a foul day on the buzzer and in match play it’s laborious to get your momentum again. One other day he might simply have gained. Tomorrow or Friday we are going to see if my survive and advance was profitable.”

    One fan praised his plan. “Props on the strategy and efficiently pulling it off. Not less than in context to how the primary two video games performed out (which, after all, you didn’t know), $15,400 seems to be actual sturdy for a wild card spot,” a reply reads. “Heck, ALL FOUR non-winners from tomorrow’s and Friday’s video games should surpass that so that you can not advance.”
