  • James Holzhauer's 'Jeopardy!' Streak Comes to an End After 32 Wins And
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JAMES HOLZHAUER’S ‘JEOPARDY!’ STREAK COMES TO AN END AFTER 32 WINS AND $2,462,216 IN PRIZE MONEY Chicago’s Emma Boettcher Earns Decisive Win in Monday’s Game CULVER CITY, CALIF. (June 3, 2019) – The “JEOPARDY! James” Era is over: James Holzhauer’s record-breaking 32-game winning streak came to an end today when Emma Boettcher, a user experience librarian from Chicago, Ill., emerged victorious. Boettcher won the game with $46,801; Holzhauer finished in second place with $24,799. WATCH TODAY’S FINAL JEOPARDY!: https://youtu.be/9fACJD1SAF8 “Emma dominated her warmup games that day, and I knew she would make an extremely tough challenger,” said Holzhauer. “I was still incredibly impressed by her courage on that ‘True Daily Double.’ I’m proud that it took a top-level player at her absolute best to eliminate me.” Holzhauer now holds the number two spots on both the all-time consecutive JEOPARDY! wins list and the all-time regular season cash winnings list. Ken Jennings remains in the top spot for both lists: 74 games and $2,520,700 in winnings. “I never really believed I could win 75 shows, but I definitely thought I had a great shot at Ken’s cash winnings record,” said Holzhauer, who finished just $58,484 shy of Jennings’ total. The 34-year-old professional sports gambler from Las Vegas, Nev., whose stratospheric wagers and game play strategy caught the attention of millions of viewers since his first appearance on April 4, accumulated $2,462,216 in winnings and set several new single-game winnings records over the course of his streak.
