Current Jeopardy Champion Ken Jennings won for the 13th night in a row tonight by another healhty margin.

His closest competitor finished 16,000 dollars behind.

Jennings now has a 13 day total of $440,158

At his current pace.. He should reach 1/2 million {500,000} by no later than Tuesday if he keeps winning.

I personally love watching this guy play. He blows away the competition. Plus he knows a lot of things I surely don't lol

The guy is amazing, but I don't like how he's so conservative with the daily doubles. I mean, most times he's like $8,000 ahead when he gets the DD question, but he only goes for $2,000 or so. It would certainly make things more exciting if he put a little more on the line during his wagers.

I do agree Other.. If he were to wager more on the Daily Doubles.. it'd make the game a little more exciting.

I remember when Tom Walsh was a 7 day champ earlier this year. The only reason his run ended was because he made a stupid wager on the Final.

I wonder if something like that is the only thing that would keep this guy from winning
