IAG Posted January 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 I may have to take issue with Rich. I sadly think Ken Jennings is vastly superior to James. He answered far more questions in the two episodes I’ve seen anyway. Also – is it just me, or are most of these questions much more difficult than the regular shows? I did get the Bitcoin question. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've set the line like this at the start. James -120Ken +120Brad +600 I thought James would dominate but Ken has answered more.

jasson621 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 I think I would lay -600 that brad doesnt win for the max!That was at the start before any games were played, and there is zero chance that a +600 on a 3way line equates to -600 he wont win. I know you are smarter than this but now I have doubts. Dipshit. As of now he would be off the board. happy new year also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVU Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Todd Furman said 5Dimes had a $500 limit and there was a player who hit it over and over and over, said 5Dimes called around to other books who claimed the same guy had hit them for the max also, so they all agreed to take the prop down. Todd said that he knows who is accused of leaking the info and that it’s 100% false....why are books sharing personal info? That’s fucked up.

IAG Posted January 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 why are books sharing personal info? That’s fucked up. Your bets are personal I thought that was a fairly common practice...always assumed it was anyway. I suppose it’s comparable to creditors sharing information on a CBR. Not the best analogy, but nothing like HIPPA in offshore I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadTiger Posted January 15, 2020 Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 I was definitely wrong in my odds. KJ is every bit the player Holzhauer is. It really all just comes to the daily doubles which KJ got the majority of. That's why I made the odds I did. Similar Trivia Power Ratings, in my opinion. But I gave Ken an edge over James. They are both Trivia Masters, and the Daily Double Bully Blitz (my term) won't work on someone like Ken Jennings. He doesn't rattle. Especially when they fell his way.

IAG Posted January 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 Huge JH fan, but feel like KJ answered wayyy more questions the nights I watched. Can’t wait to watch regular Jeopardy again where I can answer a respectable amount of questions. GOAT show gave me a complex. That JH Brad line though....still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
