Don't know who will win this deal, but I'd take James just based on his recent, dominating performance.

IIRC, he had the game as a runaway going into final more than 90% of the time. And, the game where he was finally knocked out was mostly due to bad luck. Don't recall him finding any daily doubles, and the chick he was playing doubled up at least twice.

You would figure than James, Ken, and Brad would likely know 99% or more of the answers (or "questions"). So, it would just be a question of who had the fastest buzzer and who would be able to find the daily doubles.

Haven't looked at any official odds, but I'd suspect it would be (1) James, (2) Ken, (3) Brad. Hell, I may have to look up some online action for this deal. Looking forward to the show.

James will win easily. He already has the edge because he just came off of the TOC.

Don't undersell Brad. He has beaten Ken before.

This should be on in primetime and commercial free. The only breaks would occur for fundraising efforts concerning cancer research.

ETA - No teams, no commercials, just these three guys asking questions.

Roger Craig wipes the floor with anyone. The only reason he lost the last multimillion dollar competition is bc he doubles down on every daily double even though he’s clearly ahead. When it comes to trivia, he’s the best

In the last tournament of champions, Roger Craig wiped the floor with Brad and Ken the first day. Roger got the daily double at the end, put it all on the line, and got it wrong. The next day (day 2), he made enough money to overtake both Ken and Brad’s first day totals. But, again, Roger got the daily double at the end of the second round and got the question wrong. If he even cared about playing it safe, he would have destroyed them both comfortably.
