There are three things guaranteed in the world today: Death, taxes, and Jeopardy! being on. Believe it or not, the iconic game show has been on the air for over 60 years (though the modern incarnation we know and love technically debuted in 1984). Under the watchful eye of Ken Jennings (who himself was a record-breaking champion), Jeopardy! puts three people’s trivia skills and reflexes to the ultimate test. And so many of the greats to grace those podiums started by simply watching the show as it aired on weekdays, as millions have done for over half a century.
Here’s a spoiler-filled recap of who won Jeopardy! today, plus the answer to Final Jeopardy.

What was Final Jeopardy today?
Final Jeopardy today was in the category “IDIOMS & EXPRESSIONS.”
The clue: “In the 1830s cities on the Mississippi banned cardsharps, creating more of these, now meaning one who takes big risks.”
The answer: “What are riverboat gamblers?”
Nobody answered Final Jeopardy correctly. McFerrin survived thanks to a textbook smart wager. Going in, he amassed $20,700, wagered just $1,701, the exact amount needed to cover a correct response from D’Angelo, who came in with $11,200 and wagered everything, bringing his total game score to $0 and ending his 8-day streak.
Meanwhile, Bell, who came in with $10,200, also wagered everything and ended the game with a final score of $0.
McFerrin will be back on Tuesday for his second attempt at a win.
