Jeopardy Champ Jamie Ding's Winning Formula

0:00On April 24th, Jeopardy Champion Jamie Ding just hit 30 straight wins, and he's spilling the beans on his winning formula. The 33-year-old Princeton grad mixes smart prep with bowl plays, telling people he's all about big wagers when he counts, even if he's gut, sometimes pulls conservative. He draws inspo from Detroit Lions coach, Dan Campbell, who loves going forward on fourth down, pushing Ding to bet heavy after crunching the numbers in, practice. Not every bet lands perfect, but he shakes off the misses quick. Ding thrives on classical music categories, thanks to years on piano and cello, and he beats up weak spots to stay sharp. Once the game's rolling with host Ken Jennings calling clues, his nerves fade, he just locks in on the board. His pre-game mantra keeps him centered, may you be happy, healthy, free from harm, and speak truth. It comes from a public speaking class, and it works wonders. Right now, Ding sits fifth on Jeopardy's leaderboard for consecutive games and regular season cash, trailing legends like James Holeshawers, 32, Matamodeal's 38, Amy Schneider's 40, and
