So you win if you get it right and you win in this situation. I don't know how someone can go on Jeopardy not knowing the very basic betting strategy. He pulled a Cliff Clavin.

A couple months ago a woman didn't bet enough to win and it was the most bizarre poo poo.wa27 posted:I don't know how someone can go on Jeopardy not knowing the very basic betting strategy. Considering how many third placers I see not betting 0 I think a lot of people don't think of it.

Also, the contestants aren't robots and maybe they just make a mistake?

Poor Jen furiously hitting that button through the whole show. She loves Jeopardy and its so good to see her up on the stage. I appreciate so much being able to see it!

The lady who ended up beating me was going to bet differently, which would have resulted in her losing, but she couldn't do the math so she just panicked and bet everything.

Also, I'm not surprised the kids on Thursday didn't know who Kevin Nash and CM Punk were. But I watch a lot of pro wrestler shoot interviews, so can't help but laugh about them asking children who Kevin Nash and CM Punk are.
