We told you about his success last week, and as of last night he is still going strong. Dan has won on his eighth straight appearance, bring his total winnings to a whopping $151,301. His impressive total puts Dan at number 3 on the Jeopardy Hall of Fame winners list. The Jeopardy website lists only two contestants that have ever cleared the $200,000 mark - looks like Dan may be on his way to game show history!

Good news is that the money will help support his family - Dan and his wife is expecting their first child this week.
