Jeopardy Controversy Last Night
In the latest episode in the episode, What’s In A Name which is considered as the final step to win Jeopardy. The Jeopardy champ Ben Chan was on a 9-day winning streak, but due to a spelling error in the name of Shakespeare, his streak came to an end. On the Tuesday night episode, Chan was on a rocking start, and he came next with the retired museum educator Lynn Di Vito due to the daily double loss, and it was a final Jeopardy for Chan’s game career.
The clue, which was for the game under the category of Shakespeare‘s character, read that the two lovers whose names are there from the Shakespeare play are from the Latin words blessed. The answer is Benedick and Much Ado About Nothing Beatrice. It was seen that out of the three contestants, not a single one was able to answer those correctly, but Chan gave a bit of 12201 dollars, and he lost the biggest out of the three.
Di Vito had 3000$ online, and later he was the winner and got 11,800$, from which Chan had placed 5199$ and 1000$ from Danny Leserman. The fans of the show have taken Chan’s loss particularly hard because, according to them, he was about to become the champion, but only one letter made his dream come fall, and he was away from the correct answer with just one letter.
His other competitors answered Romeo and Juliet, which was also incorrect, but Chan gave at least the correct answers, which were Beatrice and Benedict, but his answer was incorrect because he gave the wrong spelling for Benedick. The fans were not happy with that, and they gave many to its and many comments on social media. One of the fans said that it was an awful thing to rule out Ben because of one spelling mistake.
When other fans said that, when is the rule that if you miss spelling one answer, then you will be eliminated? Someone said while Ben misspells Benedick by one letter and is deemed incorrect, Lynn’s incomplete spelling of “Juliet” is nevertheless accepted as a complete (albeit inaccurate) response. They understood his strategy since they halted his streak on a bad technicality.
One of the fans gave a logical reason that if this show were about answering by speaking, then he would have one, but the concept was about writing the answer, and due to that, he lost the game. Chan was the first contestant home continuously one nine games, and he won that game with so large a difference from the second to the third place that they were not able to catch him up.
Before momentarily leaving the game show in April due to COVID-19, Chan won four runaway games. The streak persisted till he came back to defend his championship. It has been seen that it was the first time when such a harsh rule was implemented, and due to that, only the fans were not happy with that, but it is not the first time that this thing happened in this particular season.
Earlier, at the start of the month, the fans of this show were unhappy because all three contestants lost a clue which was for 1600 dollars, when the contestant mispronounced the name of Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Chan’s streak is over, but he will go on to the Tournament of Champions in 2023.
