Daily analysis, Monday, March 10

Chuphoria returns! Will our champ break into double-digit territory?

Yes, he will. Sean made a charge, but fell short of half of Arthur’s total.

Arthur Chu: 18,200
Michelle Sheffer: 200
Sean Sullivan: 7,800

The Final Jeopardy! category: AMERICAN COMPOSERS

Arthur can wager up to 2,600 and blow out his tenth candle.

Sean can wager up to 7,400, although it’s all funny money; he’ll be taking home the $2,000 second-place prize.

This is how Arthur will lose: when someone has just over half of his total and gets the Final he cannot.
