He reminds me of me. He has two arms, I have two arms. He has two eyes, I have two eyes. It's uncanny. Hope James breaks the record!

Is each day counted as 1 game? If so, was Jennings on for almost 15 weeks?

That is what I thought. I was confused when they were saying he's the most winning person ever with a paltry 1 million.

Yes each day is a new game and Jennings appeared over 15 weeks.

I think I read they changed the rules in that 30 games is the maximum a player is allowed to win, but at this rate James will still beat the money record as he's averaging more than 40,000 more or almost 3x the average daily winnings as Jennings. He now owns the top 7 single day totals.

I don't think anyone ever said that, he has the highest win amount of any jeopardy player for a single day, and also has the next 6? (changes every time he sets a new record) highest single day win amounts.

James and Ken are identical in many stats, except for amounts wagered, so they would both be well matched opponents if Ken was as young and sharp as he used to be.
