'I hold myself to an especially high standard of honor, and it disgusts me when people try to cheat at games.'
Jeopardy! leader James Holzhauer has been a trending topic among old and new fans of the long-running trivia game show after shattering Roger Craig's single-game winnings record of $77,000 April 9.
Before the Las Vegas sports bettor rose to national attention, he came from"frugal" parents, which may have been the catalyst for his value-seeking mentality. "I am in awe of Ken Jennings’s accomplishments, as all Jeopardy! fans are. Simply being compared to him is an honor," Holzhauer said."It’s interesting to hear his take on the big gambles because he was notably conservative with his own wagers fifteen years ago. Of course, if I had every game on cruise control as he did, I might have done the same."
Despite the many fans rooting for the 34-year-old, others are convinced Holzhauer's streak is too good to be true. Coined"Holzhauer Haters," some hypothesize that he is either cheating or the product of faulty game equipment.
