"These questions are clever sometimes" says Geoff, whose problems all rise from assuming completely straightforward questions are somehow trying to be clever.
Unfortunately the chances of him guessing the daily double correctly twice in a row is significantly, immeasurably higher than winning the lottery. The lottery is essentially a tax on the poor.
So, having done the math, Jack’s odds to correctly guess each daily double (with the amount of questions remaining each time) were 1/26 and 1/14. The chance of him correctly guessing the daily double in successive attempts is just the product of those two fractions, meaning Jack had a 1/364 chance (or 0.275%) of guessing the daily double correctly twice in a row (given the circumstances). For context, those are essentially the same odds as you asking a friend to pick a random day of the year and you guessing the exact day they were thinking of.
Gavin also called one out of the two daily doubles in episode 2 at 1/14 odds. So they had 1/(26*14*14) = 1/5096 odds if you only count the times they correctly guessed.
@@Willeth It's supposed to be random as far as I know though it seems like the ones they answered were more commonly in the high value spots. Geoff actually made less money on the last daily double that Jack guessed than he would have if it was a traditional question since he only had 1600 to wager but the question itself was a 2000 spot.
I don't know how Jeremy thought it was genesis. It's common knowledge that Adam and Eve/Garden of eden is the first book of the bible and is genesis. Also genesis means origin or creation. Exodus just sounds like it would be later
@@EchthelionII Exodus is the 2nd book. That is where the Israelites recieved the 10 commandments and were also Egypt= hence the first two letters in Exodus, ex=exit
I love the trend of Geoff "knowing what it is" whenever there's no chance of him being able to answer the question. You can see it in all of his trivia videos for years lol
I know it’s not a table top game, but I wouldn’t be mad at a Hardcore TableTop version of Jeopardy where you guys play with real money. Just saying lol
I want to see Jeremy and Geoff play the version where it's not multiple choice. Where you have to actually type in an answer. Geoff would absolutely *DESTROY* Dooley.
For anyone wondering what Ryan was saying about Lizzie Borden. It goes; Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her father 40 whacks, when she saw what she had done, she gave her mother 41.
I know nothing about the Bible. But I know genesis means "beginning" so it's logical to assume that means Genesis is the first book of the Bible, not the fifth
I don't think Jeremy or Trevor would put that much thought into it, and Geoff would purposely pick a different answer in spite of knowing the fact because he thinks the question is trying to be "clever."
I knew Genesis was the first book of the Bible, and the only reason I got the question right was by thinking "Which of these two names would make a better name for a cat?". Now I understand their knowledge of the Bible is extremely limited but some of those seemed easy, and there was one question that Geoff knew and I didn't.
To be fair, if you followed that logic alone, you'd also spot that "deutero" comes from the Greek word for "second", and deduce that the answer must have been Exodus ("Deuteronomy" comes from "second law", as in the second reading of the law)
Watching them play Jeopardy is always an exercise in frustration. Seeing them miss questions that (at least to me) are so obvious is maddening! Fun though.
4:47 I like how suprised Gavin was when Jeremy answered that when he literally answered it in front of him before with literally the same line of logic.
For those that din't know, Pinkerton was actually a security agency that's side-by-side with the US Marshall but also at the same time a company. Lincoln actually hired them to be his guards during the whole time the Civil War was ongoing after they defused a plot to assassinate Lincoln before the war began and even before he was POTUS. (This knowledge doesn't come from RDR2). Union Pacific on the other hand also got robbed pretty hard by Black Bart and his gang many times but then they had no stagecoaches at that time as they're all into trains. The only person that's doing stagecoaches at that time was Wells Fargo and the US Mail where Wells Fargo carries almost everything from prisoners sometimes to gold delivery and important goods delivery while US Mail, as suggests, delivers mail and parcels which also were targets for Black Bart.
The high laughter at 18:22 KILLED me When Geoff asked "did anyone else know it" 💀💀 yeah obviously, that's why they were singing it. And then someone lied "no", and then he said "see, I was right, no one else knew it"...he's truly always wrong
Lmao they absolutely didn't understand that buttercup flower question. There's a flower called anemone, but none called urchin or cucumber. Jeopardy always words their questions in a confusing way.
I know lots about the Bible, but nearly nothing about all the other categories, so for once, I was the one yelling at the screen when they didn't know the answers. I finally know how all you smart people feel! lol
Jack absolutely losing his mind after predicting the daily doubles is amazing
it is funny how he was joking around about the daily double being there and it was there
@@dilbert_thundercock shut up

Jack is the Daily Double Deity.
"These questions are clever sometimes" says Geoff, whose problems all rise from assuming completely straightforward questions are somehow trying to be clever.
Tru
You managed to sum up most Geoff's interactions with people in one comment. Impressive.
5minutes in and Jeremy has already gotten 3 right based on clues in the questions so he's not wrong.
Jack hopefully bought lottery tickets the day of this filming.
Unfortunately the chances of him guessing the daily double correctly twice in a row is significantly, immeasurably higher than winning the lottery. The lottery is essentially a tax on the poor.
@@HaydenLau. "ayy man shut the fuck up over there!"
Just question Hayden, were you born without a sense of humour, or did you lose it with puberty?
As long as Geoff picked the numbers he might have a shot
I hope he didn't, cuz we would never hear from him again if he won the lottery.
Them singing Survivor was hilarious.
"singing"
Alright we're supporting pancreatic cancer today!
20 minutes later
What's the pancreas do?
XD
why would they support pancreatic cancer?
Did you read the comment correctly?@**
It helps with digestion. Insulin stuff mostly.
Just got to the question in the video. My response is irrelevant. Well, poop.

Is the Daily Double randomly assigned, or is it more likely to be a high value answer?
@@Willeth It's supposed to be random as far as I know though it seems like the ones they answered were more commonly in the high value spots.

PaTiLo
two Ts, two Ls!
Please, do more trivia tournaments.
But leave Alfredo out, after part 2 I don't want a repeat, despite it being enjoyable to watch.
Jack: mentions Daily Double
*Daily Double has entered the chat*
Ah yes, the famous fifth book of the Old Testament: Bible.
I could not remember if it was Deuteronomy or Exodus, all I knew was it wasn't Genesis.
I don't know how Jeremy thought it was genesis. It's common knowledge that Adam and Eve/Garden of eden is the first book of the bible and is genesis. Also genesis means origin or creation. Exodus just sounds like it would be later
@@EchthelionII Exodus is the 2nd book. That is where the Israelites recieved the 10 commandments and were also Egypt= hence the first two letters in Exodus, ex=exit
CouldbeTrento I honestly just know that exodus is from the time of Moise bc of the movie name “Exodus”
do people not know the books of the bible? XD im an atheist and i know the names and order of at least some of them
Thank you, Gavin, for the 2401 Penitent Tangent shout out.
This has been a great series. Jeopardy is my favorite AH Trivia Tuesday game.
I like how Geoff is full of salt and excuses when he does bad at Jeopardy
Now hold on, that excuse does work
Look at Alfredo 😄 🤦♂️
That’s every game he plays though
"No one else knew it" he says when literally everyone else knew it
I love the trend of Geoff "knowing what it is" whenever there's no chance of him being able to answer the question. You can see it in all of his trivia videos for years lol
I guess the only exception is on the Destiny's Child question 💀
The anemone flower is what the anemone sea animal is named after. Anemone is a Greek legend about another person turning into a flower like narcissus
It's specifically about the death of Aphrodite's son Adonis. She turns him into a flower with her tears. Anemone means "wind flower"
Jack definitely blew my mind calling out those Daily Doubles. Congrats to Trevor
17:37 and 23:30. You're welcome ;)
Bless you sir
I get that this was the timestamps for the daily doubles but I came here for them singing Survivor and was not disappointed so thank you
You're a saint sir
23:32 Best. This is best. I love Jack so much.
Geoff was really climbing his way back up... I guess he’s a SURVIVOR he’s not gonna give up he’s not gonna stop he’s gonna work hard
I DIEDDD WHEN GEOFF DIDNT GET THE DESTINY'S CHILD ANSWER
I know it’s not a table top game, but I wouldn’t be mad at a Hardcore TableTop version of Jeopardy where you guys play with real money. Just saying lol
You mean, just have them play real Jeopardy?
Yeah basically lol maybe make a limit on the cash they can use, don’t want them to go broke doing it
Jeremy is really good at context clues.
I want to see Jeremy and Geoff play the version where it's not multiple choice. Where you have to actually type in an answer. Geoff would absolutely *DESTROY* Dooley.
@@sensibleb lol, seriously.
@@sensibleb Geoff really isn't as smart as people (and mostly himself) make him out to be.
Watching Jeremy try to answer was like being strapped to a slowly turning rack. You know it will end in agony and the anticipation is the worst part
Funny how smart Geoff is when he doesn't buzz in but when it's his turn to answer, he's unsure pretty often.
Oh my *GOD* I have never heard Jack scream like that
9:56 10:01 Nice Outsiders call back Jack. I love that book!
Jack with those predictions.
3:01 Jeremy sounds like the vocalist for AC/DC!!! Hahah I laughed so hard while replaying it
For anyone wondering what Ryan was saying about Lizzie Borden. It goes; Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her father 40 whacks, when she saw what she had done, she gave her mother 41.
The Final Jeopardy question was once asked on the show... and as Jeremy wisecracked, one of the contestants did write "Who is Lady Godiva?"
I love how Geoff literally shies away from the Bible.
I know nothing about the Bible. But I know genesis means "beginning" so it's logical to assume that means Genesis is the first book of the Bible, not the fifth
I don't think Jeremy or Trevor would put that much thought into it, and Geoff would purposely pick a different answer in spite of knowing the fact because he thinks the question is trying to be "clever."
The character it’s referring to is from Cats, so if you know that, you could get it
I knew Genesis was the first book of the Bible, and the only reason I got the question right was by thinking "Which of these two names would make a better name for a cat?". Now I understand their knowledge of the Bible is extremely limited but some of those seemed easy, and there was one question that Geoff knew and I didn't.

At the time of watching this video, I’m currently reading “The Hound of The Baskervilles” and they spoiled it
Well, you should have read it when it came out.
If you were as smart as sherlock you would've already spoiled it yourself
Silly RT guys. Pinkertons were a detective agency, Union Pacific was a railroad company. Wells Fargo were the ones known for stagecoaches :D
So raise your hands, who else knew ox-eye daisy because of minecraft?

I'm absolutely hammered rn but I love watvching these boys play jeiopardy its the bset
I love every reference Gavin makes to LOST. It's a blast from the past.
Damn I wish we got a facecam for when Jack predicted the daily doubles lol.
Jack Petillo confirmed psychic
Jack is psychic. No argument. That man is eerily psychic.
i like how Jeremy’s name v slowly entered the screen in the first twenty seconds. i don’t understand why, but i enjoyed it nevertheless
I KNOW THE FUTURE!
See how fun these videos are when people try to compete just a little. Awesome video
Watching them play Jeopardy is always an exercise in frustration. Seeing them miss questions that (at least to me) are so obvious is maddening! Fun though.
Geoff's Achilles heel was that he very rarely tried to buzz in
Jack how???? That was crazy man 😂😂😂😂😂

I'm actually playing Ferdinand in the Tempest right now
at 3:57 when Trevor says "Wash me down with my limbus"
I feel like a joke could have been said about the flying nimbus
I started singing before Geoff answered the question because it just clicked in my head, then got a laugh when everyone else did it.
It's Official! Jack is a wizard!
Omg not knowing the destiny's child one was absolutely tragic
I mean, technically Trevor was always the smartest in the office
OMG the answer to the final jeopardy... I really wanted Lady Godiva to be an option...
Proof that Geoff really doesn't know trivia
Congrats Trevor !!
As someone called Alex, when they address Trebek I always get thrown for a loop for a second.
