Holzhauer has amassed more than $1.2 million through 16 games. He could break the Jeopardy winnings record within three weeks.
James Holzhauer extended his Jeopardy! winning streak to 16 games on Thursday, racking up another $90,000 in the process. Holzhauer, who calls himself a professional sports gambler, has won $1.22 million through three weeks of play. His total is second all-time, behind Ken Jennings, who won $2.5 million during his famous run that began in 2003.Holzhauer, on the other hand, is on a pace to obliterate that mark if he wins just 50 games. Holzhauer seems on pace to hit or surpass $2.
If Holzhauer plays average, then he would surpass the $2.5 million mark on Monday, May 20. But Holzhauer has been anything but average, so he could hit the Jennings mark on Friday, May 17, or earlier.
