Of course, they do get the chance to do it all over again when they return to play, but if they wind up in third place on that show and take home just $1,000 in addition to the few dollars they previously won, then they are taking home less than the second place winner got on the episode they first appeared on. The longest Jeopardy winning streak was the 74 consecutive games of Ken Jennings (III). More often, players get less, and if it is a particularly hard Final Jeopardy clue where each of the players risks nearly all of their money and get it wrong, the first place winner could wind up with just a few dollars. Amy Schneider, who is currently on a 16-game winning streak as of her win on Wednesday, is now the fourth highest-earning contestant to play the game in regular-season play. We’re highlighting each one as they wait to step into the Jeopardy spotlight. Journalists, an actress, and even a football player will be joining the guest list. However, the most ever won in one game was James Holzhauer 's $131,000 in April, 2019. He holds the all-time Jeopardy records for most consecutive games won (74) and highest winnings in regular-season play (2,520,700). In a perfect game, getting all the questions right and finding Daily Doubles at the end of the rounds to get the max value, a player could potentially win up to $566,400, a huge prize. Jeopardy champion James Holzhauers record of 32 consecutive games won was beat by current champion Amy Schneider. Meanwhile, the winner takes home all the cash they earned during the game. Same for the second place finisher, except they get $2,000. Jeopardy wants to make sure no one goes home empty-handed, so no matter how much the third place finisher winds up with, even if they end the game in the negative and don't get a chance to play the Final Jeopardy round, they still leave with $1,000. It all comes down to the prize structure. What a week for Amy Schneider Hear what she has to say about becoming number 3 on the all-time wins list, surpassing James Holzhauer's 32-game winning strea. In fact, former champion and current temporary host Ken Jennings just revealed that in some cases, the winner will get less than a runner-up. Because of the way the game show is set up, the victor might not take home that much cash at all. Schneider must win another 35 games to draw level with Jennings, or 36 games to beat his record to become the longest-winning champ in Jeopardy! history.Jeopardy is often in the news because of a returning champion who has already banked over six-figures due to their multiple appearances on the show, but not every winner is a big one. While Schneider currently holds the second longest winning streak on Jeopardy!, she has a long way to go before she beats the current record holder, and host of the show, Ken Jennings.īetween July and November 2004, Jennings went on a 74 game winning streak, and the record has safely stood ever since.
