NEW YORK (AP) — Forty-game winner Amy Schneider capped her big year by winning a hard-fought “Jeopardy!” tournament of champions in an episode that aired Monday. Schneider, a writer from Oakland, California, won three games in the tournament finals, narrowly beating Andrew He, a software developer from neighboring San Francisco, who won two games. AdvertisementSchneider had a 40-game winning streak earlier this year, the second longest in the game show’s history, which began when she defeated He. She said she both wanted to compete again with He, known for his cold-blooded big bets on the show’s Daily Doubles, and feared him. She won the $250,000 grand prize, He won $100,000 for second place and Buttrey won $50,000.
