Warning: This page contains spoilers for the May 17, 2024, first game of Jeopardy! Masters — please do not scroll down if you wish to avoid being spoiled. It will be updated alongside the Eastern Time airing of the show, beginning at about 8:00 PM Eastern.
This game’s Jeopardy! Masters contestants:
James Holzhauer, the self-described “final boss” of Jeopardy! from Las Vegas, Nevada (48-9, 0 points)
Yogesh Raut, a cognitive & behavioral scientist from Vancouver, Washington (11-7, 0 points)
Victoria Groce, a writer & television personality from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (10-3, 0 points)
Andy’s Pre-Game Thoughts:
The semifinals of the 2024 Masters—with match points resetting to 0—start out with a match-up between Victoria Groce, Yogesh Raut, and James Holzhauer. The byes have been pre-determined, for what it’s worth: Amy will have the bye in Game 1, James in Game 2, Yogesh in Game 3, and Victoria in Game 4. (The rationale here is that the winner from the quarterfinals will be most likely to have clinched a spot in the finals before Game 4; thus, you are most likely to have a dramatic 3-player-for-2-spot showdown at the end of the semifinals.)

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: Yogesh 24,400 Victoria 18,000 James 13,000)
Victoria: So, you can’t both cover James and win a Triple Stumper. Either bet at least 8,001 to cover James, or—because James has reason to bet small—try a bet of 4,799 to stay ahead of James. (Actual bet: 8,001)
Yogesh: Standard cover bet over Victoria is 11,601. (Actual bet: 11,601)
James: Bet no more than 200 points to stay ahead of Yogesh in case he’s incorrect. (Actual bet: 98)
