Fans tweeted photos of contestant Jayaker Kolli – who is a medical student in Austin, Texas.

“Who thought this was a good idea?” asked user X, formerly of Twitter.

“I feel terrible for him and his friends and family watching,” echoed another. “How frustrating!”

“ABC Network, could you put on the annoying countdown clock at the bottom of the screen so it doesn’t cover people’s faces on @Jeopardy,” said another X user. “Or at least make it smaller. We all know when the debate begins.”

Kolli was playing against two other contestants: Luke Hemphill, family business owner from Poulsbo, Washington; It is Drew Basilea graduate student from Birmingham, Michigan.

Basile was champion in six days with victories totaling more than $110.00.

In the first break, Kolli answered six questions correctly.

All three players got between 3 and 5 correct answers after the break.

The turning point came during Double Jeopardy! when Kolli gave an incorrect answer.

From there, Basile took the lead and won $4,000 in the last Daily Double.

Danger! champion Drew Basile was criticized for ‘sloppy’ gameplay, but ended up ‘saving himself’ with a ‘great play’ before his 7th victory

Host Ken Jennings asked Kolli about her bucket list — calling it a little “unusual” than most.

“It’s a list of fruits I want to try at some point, various things I’ve seen online or heard about,” Kolli explained.

“I don’t know what most of them would taste like, but I’d like to know at some point.”

When asked what would be his most popular fruit at the moment, Kolli replied Jabuticaba which is a fruit that grows on the bark of a tree in Brazil.

WINNING DOLO

Drew eventually won the game and is now the seven-day champion with winnings totaling almost $130,000.

Kolli finished the game with just $3,000.

Some angry Jeopardy! fans said they are boycotting the show because of Survivor 45 alum Drew Basile’s “obnoxious” behavior.

Fans are tired of seeing Basile raising his fists after being declared the winner every night.

Some fans labeled Basile’s behavior as “disrespectful” and asked him to tone down his “bro” attitude on the show.

“Drew doesn’t know what it’s like to be a humble winner. Instead, he’s a nasty winner,” one Instagram user commented.

“Can anyone see through his false humility? Waiting for a new winner,” wrote another user.

Many fans criticized the network for keeping the ad
