One of the most anticipated game show showdowns of all time will began Tuesday night, as sports betting and poker player James Holzhauer faces off against Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter for Jeopardy supremacy in a contest that could span as many as seven nights. So, who are you rooting for?

James Holzhauer Begins ‘Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time’ Battle vs. Jennings, Rutter Tuesday Night

Update after Day 1 - Ken Jennings was the star of the first Jeopardy GOAT match, defeating former online poker player James Holzhauer and also Brad Rutter to kick off the highly-anticipated best-of-three tournament.

Ken Jennings Edges James Holzhauer in Dominating Jeopardy GOAT Day 1 Performance

Yea he almost beat them.

James did great but Ken was unstoppable in this. It was strange that Brad had been so successful in the past but seemed to be getting everything wrong in this tournament.

Even though Ken won this one, it's really cool that a pro sports gambler who plays poker is probably the second best Jeopardy player of all time!

I agree Ken Jennings was very impressive. I had been out of touch with Jeopardy for a long time but had heard the buzz around Holzhauer and expected him to win it.

However, whilst initially Holzhauer had a great game technique (and it goes without saying depth of knowledge) it was increasingly obvious that Jennings truly has an exceptional mind and recall.

Jennings was the deserved winner.

Ken deserved that win. For never having a champions title is just absurd and all the props to him for taking it down.

That was a lot of fun. Jennings deserved it. All 3 of them showed why they are so great at the game.

One of my first online handles was KenJennings... guy deserves the title of GOAT. What a beast!
