Semifinals: Jackson/Haringer/Hardee
November 18
Last week, fifteen of the best Jeopardy! players over the last year gave it their best shot one more time. Now only nine remain - the five winners plus the four wild-cards - and it's win or go home. At stake, a place in Thursday & Friday's two-part final.

The winner will receive $250,000 and join the ranks of previous ToC winners in quiz immortality.

First runner-up will win an additional $100,000, while second runner-up will pocket $50,000. All semifinalists - the five preliminary match winners and four wild-card qualifiers who scored the highest amongst non-winners - will get $10,000.

The winner of this match gets Kerry Greene and Alex Jacobs.

Daily Double: $1000 Food & Drink. Andrew has $800 to $600 for Catherine. Matt still on zero. Andrew bets $1000 on this: Wine Spectator Magazine named as its top wine of 2014 Dow's 2011 Vintage this from the Douro Valley in Europe. "What is Shiraz?" No, it was port, dropping him to -$200.

Daily Double #1: $2000 World Cities. Catherine's been lighting up the board today with a $10,000 tie with Matt. Andrew has $6000. She does the #Wager4000 on this: in 1907 a 500,000-year-old "man" was found near & named for this southwest German city. "What is Cologne?" No, it was Heidelberg, leaving her with $6000.

Daily Double #2: $2000 Show Tunes. Matt has $12,000, exactly double both Catherine and Andrew. He fronts $8000 to lock it away on this: Act I of "Wicked" ends with this high-flying song. "What is 'Defying Gravity'?" RIGHT!

At the end of Double Jeopardy!, it's Matt's game to lose.
