Does anybody watch the Tournament of Champions to see how much players are going to bet in Final Jeopardy?

I understand that there are extenuating circumstances in trying to put together this particular tournament. But, generally speaking, if you have three players who you consider the class of the field, that's the convenient number to put into a tournament (of whatever format) without a lot of unnecessary preliminaries. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
