Daily analysis, Monday, January 27

You guys, I have a huuuuuuuge crush.

Yep, it’s on Julie. Mostly because she annihilated this game. And she studies medieval French literature. I mean, come on!

Chip Bell: 10,400
Julie Singer: 26,000
Bill Hammon: 4,600

The Final Jeopardy! category: THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT

This is a “double lock” – with proper wagering, the order will stand.

Julie can wager up to 5,200 to keep the victory.

Chip can wager up to 1,200 to maintain second.

Bill can wager whatever he likes, and write down any response – including “What is Mankini?” if he so desires.

All right, good job, folks. Glad to see Chip kept his extra $1,000 for finishing second safe.

The Final Jeopardy! clue for January 27, 2014 (THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT):

THIS OFFICE IS NAMED FOR A TABLECLOTH IMPRINTED WITH SQUARES THAT WAS ONCE USED AS AN ABACUS

Correct response: What is the Exchequer?
