[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What is his strategy?
[/quote]

Works the board from the bottom up, answering the highest value questions first.  Bets big when he gets a daily double, often doubilng up.  And he's super fast & almost always right, he barely lets his opponents answer any questions.

Maybe they should let him take over Alex Trebek's job when Trebek gets too sick to work. [/quote]

I've been waiting for someone to use this strategy for years!  It's exciting to see it happening and to see my hypothesis on its effectiveness playing out.  It just makes sense: start in the categories with which you feel most comfortable and get the big $$.  The daily double is most often found in the middle of the board to upper area.  That way when you find it, you have a good bit of money to wager AND you're able to double your money on an easy-ish question.

So many times people find the first round DD early on, maybe 3-5 questions in, and have just over $1,000 or under $1,000 to wager.  Even with making it a true daily double, the max you'll win is $2k.   [/quote]
