Bringing a new strategy to the venerable game show. : James Holzhauer, a previously obscure sports gambler, is making national news and captivating millions by running the board on the long-running quiz show “Jeopardy.” His fast-moving style of play has flabbergasted competitors and upended the normally reserved format of the game. Holzhauer just roared back after a two-week break in the show, extending his run to 26 games and nearly $2 million. All-time champ Ken Jennings took home $2.5 million over 74 games before being dethroned in 2004.
