Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for February 25

In the end, it turned out that Ray emerged victorious in the game held on February 25th. As anticipated, none of the contestants managed to guess the correct answer for Final Jeopardy, although we’re taken aback by the fact that all the answers were capital cities not located on an island.

Initially, Ray possessed approximately $17,000 in the later stages of the competition. However, he suffered a loss of just $2,601 when he picked “Copenhagen” as his answer. In the end, he walked away with an impressive $14,399, securing the top spot.

Initially, Ryan was close enough to catch up, trailing by just $9,800. But then, he daringly wagered almost all he had, $9,700, on an incorrect guess of “Bangkok.” This bold move left him with only $100 for a third-place finish.

Robin didn’t come particularly close to the top prize of $9,200, but her guess of “Paris” earned her $601. This moved him into second place with a total of $8,599.
