Older guy nearly knocked him off the other nite losing by only $18 bucks I think. The wife and I just find him a little "odd". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most correct. Newbies are a little timid/ nervous at first which is understandable. He quickly nails the $1000 questions and the newbies are in a $5K hole right out the box. The other night he blew the 1st question and he was in a $1K hole. We were shocked. Of course it didn't last long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy is beyond brilliant and yes his speed buzzingng was one of the craziest things about him. He has almost instant recall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that boy is off all right, but he also has incredible, instantaneous recall and is ridiculous on the buzzer. Trivia/knowledge-wise I can usually hang with him (as can most jeopardy contestants), but his recall has zero lag time and he is savant-like with the puzzle categories (anagrams, etc). Its almost a waste that hes using his gifts in such a crap pursuit as "sports gambler". I bet some think tanks like Rand will be giving him a call.... The old guy was really good and clearly understood how to play him, but was not as quick on the buzzer. Its going to be a hell of a player that knocks him off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kleckineau Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 To be fair every thing they need to teach is in the syllabus. They dont need to be rocket scientists. The best teachers are motivators and confidence builders. I am really rooting for Holzhauer to pass Jennings however I doubt he would be any good as a teacher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
