    I've had three five-figure payouts in my life and hedged all three. My guys went 2-1 so hedging cost me a used Mazda Miata I guess

    I regret nothing

    Had a $200 10 teamer MLB on a Sunday iirc in about 2004 that would have paid $108k split between a buddy and I. We put it in at about 4am when liquored up. Took mostly dogs. Hit the first 9. Yanks-Sox was final game that night. We had the Yankees. We only had $4k in the account to hedge. Yankees led going to 9th, Mo blew the save and the Yankees lost. I still havent gotten over it.

    That is just fucking insane. I don’t even know what a good analogy would be. Someone in MLB batting over .600 for an entire season?

    can’t imagine he breaks the jennings record. he plays the game the perfect way but the downside is it opens him up to an upset i think. whiff on a double jeopardy and it could happen. almost did last week before the carpathians answer

    there was no way he was going to beat kens win record. His style of play wouldn’t be able to last 70+ games, at some point he was going to miss a DD or final and get caught with a big bet

    he was 60k from the money record. It was expected he'd break it today. And he definitely could've won the games record, he was dominant

    I bet jeopardy wanted them to. The people that stopped watching because they were bored with James will come back to watch him lose. Get one more rating bump out of it

    who the fuck would stop watching because of james? he's electric and has gained a considerable amount of buzz for the show. also why would they want him going for the money record to be spoiled?

    librarian was quick on the button. Getting both DD’s in double Jeopardy was a back breaker for James. Finally I felt like most of the answers were easier than normal today. Great run by James. He entertained me.

    i know of quite a few people that got bored with him steam rolling everyone and haven’t been watching after the first week or 2 of James run and honestly, I can get it. Most of his games were runaways from pretty much the get go and he doesn’t have much of a personality to get people to keep watching. I mean he is no Austin. This “spoiler” will get all those types of people to tune in tonight though

    some purists hate how they jump from category to category now but I thought that was just a way to avoid being overtly racist when they just hated Arthur Chu. Nope guess they really are that lame

    Can’t argue that

    i don’t think it is about the play style but I have heard people get all pissy over that too. The people I’m talking about all said they just got bored watching the same one dude answer all the questions over and over and over again

    i am sure more hardcore fans can correct me about someone else doing it but chu was the first guy i remember jumping around the board. james just took that strategy and perfected it.

    chu was my favorite contestant before james
