Matt Wins His 34th Game, Finishes with $83K | Jeopardy! Masters | JEOPARDY!

[@luilang7002]

When Matt is waaaaay ahead, he lets his opponents answer a few, Matt's a nice guy.

[@dd1984mm]

So nice. 😂

[@macbird-lt8de]

he is annoying

[@jaidonthomas5552]

How do you know that

[@henrywaber212]

I like how Matt answered with "38th Parallel Bars" and his score was $38,000 for getting that correct.

[@mr.timetraveler8784]

And he won 38 games and he was the first champion to lose in season 38! 😮

[@alienJIZ1990]

​@@mr.timetraveler8784legends say he was also born on the 38th day of the month

Thank you I was going crazy trying to figure out why my connection was messing up 😂

[@Stinky11]

Thank you ❤

[@digitalharmony26]

Thank you!

[@240chrisxx]

You're the real mvp here

[@theweysermanisback5205]

This was from Matt Amodio’s last full week that he swept, before “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” made his struggle, Jonathan Fisher slayed him, and Jonathan became a giant himself, by winning 11 games, like Arthur Chu, back in 2014.

[@FirstNameLastName-m3e]

Any chance you can use a spoiler alert?

[@kennygr8ify]

Matt is a cool player and I like his sense of humor.

[@Richoman24]

I couldn’t disagree more

[@kile1058]

im shocked a guy from peculiar made it on at all! it's a tiny town for sure. i grew up nearby, gives me some solid inspiration

[@johnnyt1866]

I’m from Kansas City and I had to repeat his intro 3 times to make sure I was hearing it right. Lol that was awesome for sure.

[@eryk6688]

Dude should be a cognitive case study of the disconnect between thought and speech. Hes slow to answer when compared to other contestants, but dude knows the answers

[@IlGreven]

Probably because he buzzes in before he fully digests the clue...he's listening while watching the light to time it right, and once he gets in, then he can give it a second's thought...

[@acatani17]

I miss Matt. Hope he does well in the Masters compared to the TOC. From previews it shows he jokes about the buzzer having issues lol. Good luck.

[@user-yu4xq9xy3d]

I was at the tapings. There was an almost 2 months delay between the first few games to the semis/finals because of scheduling conflict of one contestant, multiple tapings were postponed. The games were fantastic. Matt’s ok 👍. Keep watching.

[@acatani17]

@@user-yu4xq9xy3d yeah he seemed to be getting in his groove last night. Right at the end. Besides James he has been the longest one away from real jeopardy games. James is just a beast as last night showed and his job is literally to take people down in trivia. Cool to know that information that there was a 2 month delay, who was the one with a schedule conflict? Thanks for not spoiling the whole enchilada. Lol 👍🏻

[@billj4525]

@@user-yu4xq9xy3d I don't like the 2 month delay in a tournament like that. That can really take players out of their rhythm, and i'm saying that regardless of the results. It just doesn't make sense for a tournament. That's cool that you were at the tapings, sounds fun. Hope you had a good time.

[@billj4525]

Now I understand why they had the delay. There were some real emergencies during the tapings unfortunately. I feel horrible for Mattea losing her father in the middle of it, so tragic.

[@tinatieden3598]

Machiavelli is also a Tu Pac album. I think Matt knew that too.

[@MrGoatMan3895]

i swear this video wasn't on youtube yesterday i literally couldn't find it, but now it's here???

[@lashendawest7509]

Great video and episode

[@billj4525]

If it wasn't for James then this would have been the highest score in jeopardy history, beating Roger Craigs 77,000 I think.

[@juliansappia3824]

Hi Jeopardy! My name is Julian Sappia! I am from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. I miss Mayim Bialik after she left the show. I hope to be on the show soon! I took the test and I'm waiting to be on the show.

[@dr.heinzdoofenshmirtz3507]

This guy is a genius! First time I am seeing a full episode with him And man, that was quite the easy FJ. How did the first person not get it?

[@mr.timetraveler8784]

Who's the most Holzhauerian player: Matt, Andrew, or Amy?

[@user-yu4xq9xy3d]

Andrew’s not afraid to bet it all.

[@billj4525]

I feel like Matt for sure. He has admitted to been trying to follow James strategy, while also being interested in game theory and proper decisions, just like James. Matt also bet a lot during his first run. He went all in quite a bit. 83,000 would have broken Roger Craigs high game of 77,000 I think, if James had never played.

[@longhorn99]

Andrew and Matt bet big. That dude amy does not.

[@LickItAndStickIt]

Amy was awarded a slew of garbage opponents by the producers. She isn't bad but super overrated. She got destroyed in the masters tourney by players with far fewer wins and less cash. That backs up my point that she faced so many inept opponents.

[@misstee101]

Matt!

Well, I didn't see the title until you mentioned it. Thanks for spoiling the spoiler.

Ken Jennings is the best host

How does getting paid work in Jeopardy? E.g. Did Matt get paid 1.3 M? Did the loser get paid whatever they ended up with?

Matt is going to be paying some big time taxes on those winnings...............

I understand the issue when it's like a car or something, but when it's money, I guess you could just take it out of the lump sum payment. It's still a ton of money.

When did they stop requiring the correct first word? “What’s Mozart” is not a correct answer and should have been rejected. Who is Mozart” is the correct answer.

[@mrmajestic66]

I really question this amazing performance, no way! This is the most rigged series of episodes of jeopardy I have ever seen. This reminds me of the Jack Barry-hosted game show Twenty-One that premiered on NBC in 1956. From Wikipedia: The 1950s quiz show scandals were a series of scandals involving the producers and contestants of several popular American television quiz shows. These shows' producers secretly gave assistance to certain contestants in order to pre-arrange the shows' outcomes while still attempting to deceive the public into believing that these shows were objective and fair competitions. Producers fixed the shows sometimes with the free consent of contestants and out of various motives: improving ratings, greed, and the lack of regulations prohibiting such conspiracy in game show productions. Sound familiar???

" ..... second WINNINGEST ..." ??? Are you kidding, woman? WTF is 'WINNINGEST'?

[@mattzed11]

It’s a correct, though uncommon, form in North American English. Always used in the superlative (never “*He is winninger than she is”), always in the third person, always the context of competitve rankings.

[@HalosWoe]

Is Matt a cheater? There's gotta be some way to cheat

[@crazycatlady61]

They really should have kept mayam as the host, she has a much better voice for it than ken, she also has more emotion in her voice, ken is very monotone and his voice does not have a clear tone.

Is it real this time? What is blank shouldnt count for people only WHO IS.

[@DavidWMiller]

Who gives a shit?

[@angry_moose94]

That's part of his strategy. Always answers with "what's" since the rules allow any phrase that has the answer in it. This possibly increases his reaction time.

[@askylibrarianoftheoceans4102]

@@angry_moose94 Adding on to this - when the rules say "any phrase" they mean ANY phrase - you could say "is it blank?" and it would be acceptable Plus, if the response was already in the form of a question, you don't need to add anything; if the correct response was "what's up, doc?", for example, you don't need to say "what is 'what's up, doc?'"

[@TakaComics]

@@askylibrarianoftheoceans4102 I think the rules say you have to use a question word, and in the case of "What's up, doc," you do have to say the question phrase before the full phrase, because it's like someone asking about what it is. "Hey, what's up doc?" is very different from "Hey, what is 'what's up doc?'"

[@TakaComics]

@@angry_moose94 It also reduces some stress. Sometimes you are still thinking about the answer while buzzing in, and say "what is..." without thinking. I think the rules are meant to deal with this situation and just test the trivia, rather than being too specific about the way they are answering.
