The game show is currently in the finals of the Tournament of Champions, the most exciting phase of the show. Moreover, it is the fourth round of the five-round finale, and one of the contestants is whiskers away from taking home the title.
In the upcoming round, Amy Schneider, a writer from Oakland, California, Andrew He, a software developer from San Francisco, California, and Sam Buttrey, an associate professor of operations research at the Naval Postgraduate School from Pacific Grove, California, will face off for the fourth time, with Andrew He is in the most promising position to take home the cup with two wins in four games.
