So I was... Okay, now I'm so glad. See, this actually is a great window into my mind here. Because watching it, yes, at the moment I was devastated and I'm so mad at myself for not... Because I know geography. I know history. I was just like, my brain was whatever. But my process was correct there. So I'm actually...

Like, I feel a lot better watching how it played out, Pablo, because I did bet the exact right amount, which was something that I looked into.

So this was something... Like, I prepared for this, and then talked to you about Daily Doubles. You know Hayes Davenport? He is a guy who went to school with Pablo, who I'm friends with.

Super funny dude, has been on Jeopardy. So I asked him for advice, and this was the one piece of advice he gave me. If you're in second place... and you're in striking distance, meaning you can jump first, only bet enough so that third place can't jump you. So if third place can't jump you at all, you bet $0. That dude had just enough money to jump me, right? Which sucks.

But the reason you do that is because you're not going to win unless first place is wrong. So you don't have to, and first place is going to bet enough to not get jumped. So All you have to do is worry about third place. And that's what I did with my betting strategy. $1,000 was enough to beat third place, right? If he had either gotten it right or didn't get it right.

So in the moment, I was like, wait, did I do this wrong? I was actually more upset that I did it, but I did it right. Because if third place had been wrong, I would have won if we had all been wrong. Because first place had to worry about me. Did that make sense?

Well, he's like an extremely wealthy tech entrepreneur. So, you know, I don't think he's really the underdog of a lifetime here. But yeah, he was like stunned afterwards. It was the moment you could see he was stunned. Like he walked out and his family was like, what just happened? And Sean Gunn, I gotta find Sean. We gotta get a drink. We were both just like, screw this. I hate this show.

No, we love it. But like we were just like devastated. It was a great television moment. It really was. and I didn't watch the entire, I didn't watch the episode. Obviously, I've only seen this, but I have to think it was probably one of the more entertaining finishes. It's similar to Pablo's finish, right? Where it's like dramatic, come from behind.
