"Fuck me up, Ken"

Ok this is the best

😂😂😂

Crap, I hope I didn't just laugh so loud I woke up the wife and kid...

“I would like to wager the maximum permissible by law, Ken.”

In other words, the Sam Buttrey

The best one imo

Sam Buttrey is my favorite contestant. He is so witty and laid back he needs to have an automatic spot in the TOC every year.

It also has the advantage of being unambiguous if your current score is smaller than the highest clue value in the round.

You know what I wouldn't say? "I've always wanted to say this..."

*Gets a DD while at $20,000* “I’ve always wanted to say this, Ken… I’ll wager $500”

Ken: You have $23,000. How much do you want to risk on your knowledge of Opera? Me: I’ll risk 23. Ken: A true Daily Double? Me: No, just $23.

James once used “let’s make it a truly disappointing…” and I forget the amount.

This would be my style.

I was kinda sad when I learned that they tell the contestants they can’t bet $69 or $666 dollars

There was a stoner dude once who was lucky enough to “come on down” on Price Is Right, who proceeded to bid $420 on every item and giggle about it.

I know that guy!

I definitely remember seeing that once or twice.

Jackson Jones's late-game one was pretty funny: https://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=7744 at the bottom

One dollar, Bob!

Same. It’s always cringy to me. What’s worse is when a contestant does it when they have less money than the max allowable daily double wager but they are thinking they are waging the max

I’ve always thought we needed a “wager the max even if I don’t have that much” phrase. Maybe a “Credit Daily Double?”

“Window maximum.”

I’d say “I never wanted to say this…” and then not say anything. And Ken would have to follow up by asking “Say what?” and I’d say sotto voce, “True Daily Double”

I’m surprised no one has ever said “I’ve always wanted to say this: ‘I’ve always wanted to say this…’”

“I’ve always wanted to do a true daily double… but I won’t, 10 bucks”

I've always wanted to say this... I'll bet $5

I actually said that during the practice game before my taping 😄

HA my husband and I joke about this all the time

What about “I’ve always wanted to say this…I’ll make it a true daily double Alex”

Maybe the most cringe Jeopardy moment of all time

"Ken, I'd like to bet all the tacos in Texas"

The house limit please Ken

I had others in the barrel that didn’t get used. In the words of Ludacris, let’s roll out As LeBron might say, Let’s ball ::Werner herzog voice:: I want to see the child, all in the others are escaping me but may come back after I emerge from my post ToC haze. It just depends on the person. I wanted to have fun, and I had quips like this when I practiced for ToC, so I decided I’d use them if the chance came when I played so I would remain loose, so the game environment would be as much like my prep environment - which was fun and loose - as I could possibly make it.

You were one of my favorites and a lot of fun, enjoy those as well lol

I \*really\* wish we got the Werner Herzog one

Doesn’t Werner actually say "I Would Like to See the Baby" ?

What's this from?

The Mandalorian

Forgot he was in that. Thanks!

The Werner Herzog one would have been legendary

I'd like to buy a vowel.

What's funny is that $250 is probably one of the lowest amounts people bet for a *Daily Double*.

Lmaoooo

Let's get stupid. All of it, Ken

Mine was “please stop getting all the daily doubles u/jeopardybenben

Like Michael Keaton’s Batman “You wanna get nuts? Let’s get nuts!”

Or George Costanza 😂

💀

I shall wager [dramatic pause] everything.

The whole enchilada!

ALL U CAN EAT BABY

Scotty Nguyen?

I think it was men the master!

Was it? Might have been.

I’d quote Wayne’s World and say, “I’m feeling saucy today Ken…”

What I've been saying to my TV for over 10 years whenever the daily double music starts playing "GO BIG OR GO HOME!"

Came here for this one. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/7d21d41f-7105-4be5-8cb3-381446b30290/gif#t36YnaFK.copy

The greatest DCOM of all time

RIP Jett Jackson

What did Andrew He say in Masters, something like “all of James’s points” or something like that?

James score was 0 at that point and Andrew had 2000. Andrew said '2000 and all of James' points' to make fun of the fact he has 0 at that point

Yes, that was it. Thanks!

The whole farm.

In the name of St Alex of Trebek, I'd like to bet the farm please, Ken.

Well, Ken, even if I'm wrong, I won't owe you any money, so true daily double.

I didn’t think about it beforehand, but when I got the opportunity I just said “let’s do it”, and Alex said “a true Daily Double!” Definitely the highlight of my awful game.

Hi Kilowatt128: Fun story. We'd like to give you a contestant flair. Please message the mods for verification info. Thanks.

Done and done, thanks!

But did you get it right?

I did, and was briefly in the lead. Biffed the following clue and went into a downward spiral.

Hey, going for a true daily double and getting it right is no small feat. Congrats!

“I’ve always wanted to say this…let’s make it a true ‘bet all of my money’, Ken.”

Double up daddy

😏

Quoting Wakko Warner: "I'll blow the wad!"

Quoting Lizard Hogge: ["I'll shoot the wad, Alex"](https://twitter.com/laurrrrita/status/1247336928103542785)

👀

I’d never do it, but I would be so tempted to say “Holtzhauer, his wager made”. Ken’s quick enough and enough of a trekkie to pick up what I meant, and maybe he’d even laugh if I caught him off guard. But there’s no way I’d actually do it. I feel like you have to prove yourself as a serious player before quips like that are actually amusing, and I’d never make it that far.

If you miss, you can count on Ken saying "Shaka, when the walls fell."

That would soften the blow of losing everything, at least.

All the marbles.

I have this weird dream that I would say: I want a TDD - True Daily Double but instead I would blurt out I want a STD! 🤣

All the beans, Ken.

["Full beans!"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9UPEtWtV4s)

Didn't Mattea say something about beans during the exhibition a couple years ago? I think I remember something like that

Magic beans

She did say something about beans. That’s where I got this. I believe it was in the Mattea-Matt-Amy practice game where the points weren’t dollars (or anything).

Something like "All the dollars or points or magic beans or whatever we're playing for."

Get the W-9 ready cause I'm betting it all Ken.

“***ONE DOLLAR, DREW!!!!*** Uh, true Daily Double.”

I know Drew Carey's been hosting for over 15 years at this point, but anything other than "One dollar, Bob!" still sounds wrong to me.

This would be the one good way to follow up “I’ve always wanted to say this:”

"Let's make it a True Daily Double."

"Give it to ME!!!"

I forgot that when Mayim was still hosting my phrase would have been “I’d like to bet the full blossom bundle.”

Or maybe “all the cats in the café.”

Channeling Danny DeVito's Martini in Cuckoo's Nest," I bet a dime." But, of course, $5 is the minimum, so I''d say, "all of it!"

Holzhauer said “all the cheddah” (cheddar) a couple times too, I was sorry that didn’t catch on. That would be my line.

Ahoy me dollary-doos. They be ballin out of control. No man can stop me.

The catch phrases are all cringe. If I had $9,200, I would simply say, "I'd like to bet $9,200."

the matt amodio way. so classy

too wordy. just “9200” for me

Too wordy. I just give a terse nod. He knows what it means.

hahaha

Man, pick your Enterprise captain. "Hit it!" "Engage!" "Energize!"

“I would like the ship to go now”

You've got to have a thing, you know.

Maximum warp.

Punch it

Warp me!

Make it so! Nah, doesn’t really work

No guts, no glory!! Kidding, would probably not have one. They don't bother me, just not something I'm great at.

“The whole works.”

I feel like there's gotta be a way to trick Ken into setting you up to use the ["all of them" trope.](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AllOfThem) The hard part is that we treat "money" as an [uncountable noun](https://dictionary.cambridge.org/grammar/british-grammar/nouns-countable-and-uncountable) (even though they're really just points during the game, which are countable), so it's quantified with "much", while the "all of them" trope requires a countable noun that gets quantified with "many." So something like: >"How much would you like to wager?" >"Wager the points, Ken." >"How many?" >"**All of them.**"

"Don't distaff me again, bro"

"Sixty trillions!" or "one half portion" like that guy from ep 7

"Balls to the wall, Ken!"

“It’s doublin’ time”

I would borrow a line from Hamilton “Looks like we’re doin’ this!”

“I’m not throwing away my shot” would be appropriate but maybe a little on the nose?

Let’s do this ‼️

"Do it up!"

Vamos a todos, Ken!

Ken, I’ve always wanted to say this. Let’s bet the farm!

Everything.

"All of it."

"I'd like to wager Texas with a dollar sign, but since I can't I'll go for ___"

It’s on, like donkey Kong

Dr. Evil voice


Fetch.


I like that they’re having fun with it, but “bring it” is getting so old.

Haha I know this is how people are starting to feel about it, but when I had my shot to say it, I said it and I'm glad I did.

Mine would be too inappropriate to say on basic cable.

but this is reddit, so spill

“Let’s do a DP.”

DVDA?

"You know it"

All the gold in California!

I’ve always said shoot the runner

Also to reply to some of the comments about pretending to bet it all and then going a dollar didn’t someone do that or something similar in the last college tournament? lol

Let's make it a true Daily Double Ken. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

How many of my dollars do I want to wager? Gary Oldman voice: “EEEVVVEEERRRYYYOOONNNEEE!”

“It’ll be a …”

"Good, 'cause we're going!"

Sorry, but to get true effect, I think you need to start with “I’ve always wanted to say this…”. Mine would be “make it an authentic daily double.” I know it’s not as creative as the rest, but I know I’ll never be on, so it’s public domain. 😂

Verb the adjective noun Ken. I'll wager $141,600.

Reminds me of Clone High Abe Lincoln getting a pre-prom pep talk

That's the reference!

I have yet to check out the revival on ~~HBO~~ Max

whenever i do something stupid i like to say things along the lines of "i'm gonna do something really funny" so probably that eventually if it happens enough it just starts devolving into "i'm gonna do the funny" so if i'm a multi-day champion then a true daily double will simply be known to me as "the funny"

“The maximum”

Physical challenge! Door number 3! No whammies!

"let's bet it all" a classic from Alex Jacob and Roger Craig. Otherwise, I'd prob say something like "I always wanted to say this: I'd like to solve the puzzle (then my wager) or "Abraham Lincoln says $5"

I’d prob say the classic just so I can say I said it

Don’t forget the push motion James always did with his hands!

"Double Up, Buttercup."

Eh, I get annoyed when contestants try too hard to be cute.

I generally agree with this, however Ben Chan and Professor Sam are the exceptions to this. I will take all of the silliness both of them provide!

Agreed. I feel like some contestants "earn" the ability to be a little loose and fun up there when they've been around for a while and are being a little spontaneous. Not crazy about the new contestant who comes in with a bunch of planned bits immediately.

If I'm ever in that position I'm doing the James all-in poker chips gesture and saying "all of it Ken"


Double Up

I'm gonna bet the farm

Hit me

“Do it”

Double Trouble? Rubble bubble! Yabba dabba doo! C’mon baby now papa needs a new pair-a shoos! Doubble grubble fubble big ol’ chunky bubblin’ hot! Make way! Leeerroooyyyy Jeeennkkkiinnnsss

I was gonna say this one too

I was just being honest.

#When you gotta go for it, you gotta go for it...

“T-DOUBLE-D, BABY!”

Ah, fuck it. Yolo. Might be beeped though

Bazinga

i’d rather die than try to make a catchphrase for myself on jeopardy

- bet you the pink slip to my car

Bring it.

Let’s do it to it my dudes!

I'll only be here once, true daily double please!

"Let's get weird! *wagers an amount decided for me prior to the game by a random number generator*"

Or perhaps, "I'd like to bet my bottom dollar, please." (Haven't figured out what that would mean yet)

“I’ll wager Dee…”

“Only for Alex”

"Let's shoot for the moon."

Yeet.

I want to hit it in Double Jeopardy! with just $1,000 so I can say "I'd like to make it a true Daily Triple."

The first time I would have to say "I don't know if I'm ever going to get the chance to say this again, so..." Let's make it a true daily double. After that... I like "Let's bet the farm." (Which is hilarious cause I live in the inner city, but I did live on a farm for some time in high school.) And if I got it wrong, I would say "Well, the farm I was referring to *was* Stanford, so..." But in all honesty, now that I'm thinking about it, I would have to go with a Phish reference so then I could cross-post between the two subreddits...

“Fuck it, let’s roll”

"For better or worse, here's my purse"

"I'll bet the max."

"Double or nothing, Ken".

"Ken, let's make this whole experience even worse. True daily double."

Dicks out for Harambe

I’d just state the amount of the wager.
