Allegra Kuney Extends 'Jeopardy!' Streak to Three Wins, Reaches $85,001

Her run has been defined by a season-high Final Jeopardy wager, with Ken Jennings praising her consistent accuracy.

Overview

  • Kuney won her third game on Nov. 7, finishing with $20,000 against challengers Mason Hendrix and Larisa Mount for a three-day total of $85,001.
  • A day earlier she posted $38,401 after wagering $17,001 on Final Jeopardy, which Jennings called the season’s largest correct bet.
  • She entered that Nov. 6 Final Jeopardy in the lead after a midgame surge, securing a two-day total of $65,001 heading into Friday’s matchup.
  • USA TODAY’s recap of the Nov. 6 episode noted nine triple stumpers and detailed the final standings and wagers for all three contestants.
  • Coverage also reflects a minor discrepancy in season labeling, with TV Insider citing Season 43 and USA TODAY referring to Season 42.
