'Once again, the 'Jeopardy' champion!': Boise man keeps winning on famous TV game show
Michael Deeds, The Idaho Statesman
Jul. 21—A Boise man is making noise — and bank — on "Jeopardy."
After piling up a three-day total of $66,405 in winnings, Josh Saak will compete on a fourth episode that airs at 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 21, on Channel 2.
Since making his debut Friday on the long-running game show, Saak, 44, hasn't been tested seriously by his competitors. Although he got the "Final Jeopardy" question wrong during his first appearance, he'd already built a solid lead. His conservative bet of $3,205 still left him with $18,395 — and the win. Then on Monday, Saak had another major monetary advantage heading into the final round. He nailed the final question, finishing with $28,405 that day.
