Las Vegas sports bettor James Holzhauer is rewriting the"Jeopardy!" record book on an almost nightly basis.
Jennings won more than $2.5 million during his 74-game winning streak in 2004. Holzhauer is on pace to surpass Jennings in just 36 games and now owns the four most prolific single-day performances ever on the show. Holzhauer risked $60,013 on the final category"20th Century Literary Characters" and had the answer for"His first name refers to the ancient district in which you'd find the Greek capital; his surname is a bird.""Who is Atticus Finch?" Holzhauer wrote in his response. He added:"This is for you Granny
Holzhauer, 34, has been betting on sports seriously since 2006 and is considered a respected player by multiple Las Vegas sportsbooks.

KenJennings don't let this happen.
This has cheating scandal written all over it.
He is a real gambler. And pretty smart to boot.
James if you’re reading this please dm me your draft kings lineups for tonight’s games.
SportsCenter My dude
Jeopardy is a game show not a sport. Who cares? Why is this being reported on ESPN
SportsCenter He must be doping where the tests at 😤
SportsNation Tsawruk is this record hallowed like DiMaggio's hit streak for you? Figured Jennings would never come close to being touched.
Christopher_yc 1v1 w this guy
I understand that LeBron and Zion aren’t playing right now, but I’m 100% sure there are sports to cover.
fakenews not a perfect game. He missed one in the second round. Haven’t missed one round of this guy he is ridiculous.
SportsCenter Commanding lead? Nobody else even answered a damn question😂
SportsCenter YESSSS! James, Ken & Brad!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
SportsCenter He’s AMAZING!!!!!
This man is a literal god. Watched last night the mans answers in 0.01 seconds and always gets it right.

Ken bout to come out of retirement NessPKFFL
SportsNation Could y’all imagine being the people he played with ? Like you didn’t get to answer a single thing lmao
I say a 3 way 2 week contest between Him. Brad & Ken
Let get him, Ken Jennings and this guy for the championship round
What a legend, same percentage as Aron Baynes’ FG and FT shooting in the NBA Finals wow
SportsNation Turned in right when double jeopardy started. I was not disappointed.
Some how, SportsCenter still manages to compare Jordan & LeBron.
SportsCenter Holy fuck that’s one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen
Why is this on a sports site? Are you going to cover Family Feud next week and The Price is Right the week after that?
SportsNation
If he's so smart he would know that the Dodge Ram is the most fuel efficient truck in America with the best-in-class towing thanks to its v6 eTorque engine.
sports
But does he know the krabby patty secret formula?
Jeopardy champ vs champ :)
I must meet this man
NorthernlionLP you vs the guy she told u about
I think the fix is in. They want people to watch. Ratings.
jackfrank_jjf
He would never survive in ken Jennings era
This guy got all the questions right What the fuck, I’d be heated if I was playing against him😂😭😭
Dude is an animal in Jeopardy world. Been watching. It’s hilarious...his strategy is to rack up all the high value questions early...build insurmountable lead...then take a break and let the minions of lesser minds have a chance to answer a question or 2...then...he chokes them😂
Hes kind of cute too
Wheres the robot in his ear

It's sports for your brain, people!
and what does this have to do with sports?
BEAST !!
I think he could break it
The guy is a professional sports better, in case anyone is wondering where the sports is in here.
His smile is code for 'tell me how my ass taste'!
Can he touch his toes without bending his knees tho?
very intense sport
Green Bay is a very solid team, who could honor their star players by having the game decided on a coin flip by a coin flip.
Not a sport don’t tweet about it
