Daniel Moore’s second “Jeopardy!” victory wasn’t as stellar as his first, but he lives to fight another day.
The Pittsburgh contestant ended Monday night’s episode with another $14,800, defeating fellow contestants retired elementary teacher Jerry Powers of New Jersey and librarian Leann Craumer of Maryland.
Unlike Friday, Moore correctly answered Final Jeopardy, winning his $5,000 wager.
Ken Jennings opened the episode by telling the audience, “We ended the week with a game of Daniel domination.” Jennings pointed out Moore correctly answered 30 clues in Friday’s game, on his way to winning $25,000. His two-day total winnings are $39,800.
Moore, a contract compliance analyst with the mayor’s office, will go for a third straight win in Tuesday’s episode.
“Jeopardy!” airs weekdays at 7:30 p.m. on WPXI.
