Daily analysis, Tuesday, February 25

I’m coming down with a cold. Let’s see how much tonight’s players make me use my voice.

Not much, thankfully – Arthur’s got it locked up once again, and Myfanwy doesn’t need to do anything to secure second place.

Arthur Chu: 29,400
Padraic Connelly: 3,400
Myfanwy Davies: 9,800

The Final Jeopardy! category: BUSINESS

A simple enough scenario.

Arthur can risk up to $9,800 of his winnings.

Myfanwy cannot improve on the $2,000 second-place prize, so she might as well wager zero. If she wants to play for pride, she can wager up to 3,000.

Padraic can do whatever he wants, maybe leaving a dollar in case Myfanwy goes all-in (as the second-place player did yesterday).

Yikes! We still managed to have someone screw it up.

The Final Jeopardy! clue for February 25, 2014 (BUSINESS):

“THE EVERYTHING STORE” IS A BOOK ABOUT THIS COMPANY THAT IN 2012 WAS HOME TO 1% OF ALL NORTH AMERICAN INTERNET TRAFFIC

Correct response: What is Amazon?
