ben’s been lucky to win almost all of these games. I don’t see
him doing especially well in the toc

[mr.timetraveler]

Fun fact: This was the closest game since Hannah Wilson's 3rd game when she won by $3, on 5 May, aka 5/5. Meanwhile, Ben won his 5th game by $5! 😮 AND Monroe was the 5th U.S. President! 😂

There’s a librarian on tomorrow. You know, librarians have brought down some champions, including James and Amy. Look out, Ben.

[BlackJaxxx]

LOL 1:25 the response when you realized you lost by only 5 bucks.

[sebastienroland]

I’m surprised that Ben Goldstein has the lowest score in 5 Wins so far $49, 298. Similar to Paul Nelson, he had a low score of $54, 900 in 5 Games as well. Can Ben continue on 6 Games? Let’s find out tomorrow.

[JRYsp]

I wonder what the record is for the lowest dollar amount won but still qualified for the TOC.

[judithmoore]

The year was very helpful in getting to James Monroe and then it hit me that this was the Monroe Doctrine. Dare I say it, 4 in a row for me. I’ll tie my record if I get FJ tomorrow! I won’t get my hopes up. It might be a sports or show biz question.

[kennygrify]

That was crazy and Ben has the lowest five-day total until $50, 000 qualifying for the Tournament of Champions and if he wins tomorrow, he can have a low six-day total like Megan Wachspress did under $90, 000 to $100, 000.

Didn’t John Quincy Adams write the Monroe Doctrine????

[spideraxis]

First I thought it was Madison then made the connection to Monroe.

[markintexas]

Having a history degree sometimes helps with these. It didn’t take me too long to figure out it involved the Monroe Doctrine.

[kali]

Except the Monroe Doctrine was at least in part written by John Quincy Adams....

[ezioaltairac]

Good for Ben…but he’s gotta be the obvious lamb for the ToC. I wish I had his luck.

[chadho]

James Monroe is correct, Ben is a 5 day of $49, 298. Congratulations 🎉

[JackGranahan]

I knew as soon as the clue was read that it related to the Monroe Doctrine. At first I thought the answer was John Quincy Adams since he actually wrote the Monroe Doctrine as Secretary of State but I figured that was too difficult for someone without strong American history knowledge. Correctly guessed Monroe.

[justinmay]

Clue writers need to do better research next time. John Quincy Adams is who actually wrote the Monroe Doctrine.

[djtforever]

I'm not even American and i got this right.

Category idea: Identify the bird based on audio clue🐦

[FourthDerivative]

I thought it was Napoleon. Turns out he had died 2 years prior. I am dumb.

[zacharyanderson]

That's a pathetic 5 day total. Really bad performances by the players
