Dan Pawson
With his 9-time streak and 2009 Tournament winnings, Dan Pawson’s prize money totals $421,902! Pawson said the prize money helped pay student loans and have money for him and his wife to raise their baby. In addition, he gave some to charity. Oh and he’s a poker play so that’s probably how he was so talented at knowing what to wager.

Wow, this contestant won $413,000 during his 13 show run! However, people really remembered him for his “Krameresque” nature. Apparently, Trebek said Rogers was, “outside the box, completely different from what many viewers expect a Jeopardy! contestant to be.” Now, this bartender from NYC plans to save his winnings and not go wild with spending it all. Smart move!
