I made the following post on May 7 (#15 on this thread): James Holzhauer had been taking the online tryout for “Jeopardy!” for about six years before he was finally asked to audition in person. Determined to reach the “Jeopardy!” stage, Holzhauer solicited tips in an online poker forum: What could he do to get a spot on the show? “The number one piece of advice he got was just, ‘Smile, look like you’re having a good time,’” said Ben Yu, a longtime friend and fellow professional gambler. James Holzhauer story - NYTimes May 7, 2019 Anita, I would suggest that you send a copy of that post to your grandson. It shows the difficulty of anyone, even someone so amazingly and obviously talented as James Holzhauer, has of appearing on Jeopardy. That story should boost your grandson's spirits and self esteem. "So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history." -- Plutarch |
