Yes, he has a very unorthodox style of play. It's quite rare to see a player go for all the high-dollar 'answers' first...they almost always start at the top of the columns with the easier stuff. And risking big bucks with his all-in betting on double & final
Jeopardy is pretty unusual too. I noticed that in last night's game, the other players were also going for the more difficult picks early on in an effort to keep up. I wonder if this guy's style will spark a sea-change in the way
Jeopardy is played from now on.
It must be quite disheartening to go thru all the preliminary steps to become a contestant, then be picked for a game against a really sharp player like the current champ.
