Larissa’s big bet

A great game was played by all, but Larissa Kelly won it by returning to the tactic that served her so well last May — betting big in Final Jeopardy! In fact, she bet it all, and it’s a good thing, too. And now it’s on to the championship game!

100 seconds with Larissa on JEOPARDY!

I’ve learned the hard way to not assume that a video clip that’s somewhere today, will be available tomorrow. So anything that I don’t want to lose, I grab and post myself, and that’s what I’ve done with this Q&A with Larissa Kelly, who is heading into the JEOPARDY! Tournament of Champions finals this week.

The Graduate Center at the University of California/Berkeley, where Larissa is a PhD candidate in Latin American studies, has a nicely updated page about her. Click here.

“Very impressive, Larissa Kelly!” — Alex Trebek

The impressive “grad student from El Cerrito, California,” Larissa Kelly, continues to not disappoint her fans. Way to go, young lady! Here’s the video of her semi-final win on the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions. The game got very interesting in the Double Jeopardy! round. There’s even a Stephen Colbert question in there.
