That guy in the background on the cell phone takes extremely inefficient routes.

If i remember correctly, this guy was losing and his only chance of winning was to bet it all on the last question. Well, the guy who was winning lost everything because he bet everything and got it wrong, but the Emory guy got it right, but he didn't bet enough money and still didn't have enough money to win. I wanted to slap him through the television screen.

A friend of mine from MIT went on Jeopardy last year.
