    James made Jeopardy so fun to watch, I could have cried when he had his first loss at such a critical point in his run. Thanks for the thrill James.

    I've written in before.
    I first saw James on The Chase and it was thrilling.
    Then one day he appeared on Jeopardy. I said to myself : Gosh, this game is never gonna be the same ! And I was right !
    .. not only is he a brilliant guy, he's darn sweet with a subtle personality. He is already donating money to various charities - which is also a lovely thing to see. When interviewed, I admire the way he is completely upfront about his winning techniques on Jeopardy.
    I think James has brought the Game to its inevitable conclusion. But that is not a bad thing.
    I love the picture and story, in the paper, of James at 4 years old with his pre-school teacher. They had to make up special math problems for him.
    He was adorable and he is anything BUT a machine.
    Perhaps after watching James, people in this country will learn to admire brilliance instead of stupidity.
    Gambling is fun to watch when it is coupled with a vast knowledge of everything - ( and I've finally learned about the buzzer.)
    I hope he lands the baseball job that he's looking for - but not until after May 20th ... when he goes back to Jeopardy !

I have not missed an episode since James' first one. I usually don't care if I don't see it, but not with James on. I do hope he shatters ALL the records!

      Based on the IQs of the people in my circles, I'd peg James above 150 easily. Mine is 140-150 and James even more quickly processes information, analyzes spatial scenarios and solves problems. If I were to pick a number I'd say 160. He's definitely in the top 1% of general intelligence.

    How can they possibly keep the results of James Holzhauer's games a secret?
    Jeopardy tapes their games far in advance. There is an audience of several hundred people at every taping. Therefore, there are several hundred people who know if he lost or if he is still the champion. In the age of social media, how does Jeopardy keep those people from leaking the results. And don't tell me they signed a non-disclosure agreement. Even if they did, they could create a fake Twitter account and release the results

      Someone did leak it. Apparently, he wins either 52 or 55 games... Less than Jennings, but wins more money.
      The guy is a trivia professional, NOT a professional sports gambler. Search 'holzhauer Rutter' on UA-cam. He's personal friends with former Jeopardy champion and arguably the best player of all time, Brad Rutter and Jeopardy knows that. They hired him to boost ratings before Trebek passes away from cancer.

      @@moea.9120 Like most bullshit internet comments, you have left out a ton of details. First of all, where was it leaked? How can you be sure the source was legit? What proof did the person provide? TMZ has nothing about it, nor does any other major news agency. If his results had been leaked, it would be all over the news. Also, the EXACT NUMBER of wins would be known if it was leaked. The fact that you can't even provide the exact number of wins just proves you are another online shithead with no useful info who doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about.
