Warning: This page contains spoilers for the May 22, 2023, 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:
Matt Amodio, a postdoctoral researcher from Cambridge, Massachusetts (0 points)
Andrew He, a software developer from San Francisco, California (0 points)
James Holzhauer, a self-described game show villain from Las Vegas, Nevada (0 points)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Tonight’s opening semifinal is a rematch of a game I said on May 9th was in the running for the best game of all time: James Holzhauer vs. Andrew He vs. Matt Amodio. Those three players combined for $66,400 going into Final, with James and Matt tied at $28,400, with Matt Amodio giving James Holzhauer his only loss of the competition to date. All three of these players can win this opening semifinal, and this outcome will absolutely depend on who does the best on the four major clues (the three Daily Doubles and Final Jeopardy). James is absolutely still the favorite to win—but there’s certainly a disagreement among many regarding the degree to which James is the favorite. I still firmly believe that there’s significant variance at this level of Jeopardy!—it was that variance that worked against James in Greatest of All Time, and it could help or hinder him here.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they can, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

James: Standard cover bet over Andrew is 4,401. (Actual bet: $4,401)
Andrew: Bet at least 6,399; I’d consider limiting my bet to 6,999, just to force Matt to be correct to beat me. (Actual bet: $6,800)
Matt: Bet at least 601; I’d avoid going all-in, just in case Andrew does the same. (Actual bet: $7,001)
