After 13 straight victories, the 60-year-old former Thunder Bay resident was narrowly defeated in the game that was televised Tuesday.
"It's been lovely. I've still got family up there, and people I'm still in contact with. I'm hearing 'They're mentioning you every night on the news.' That's great. Thunder Bay is where I grew up ... and I've got many, many fond memories there." He said that after the first day of taping, when he won his first two games, he thought "This is great. I've done everything I thought I would ever do. Then I went back [to record more games] the next day and kept winning."
He plans to use some of his winnings to travel and help send his daughter to graduate school, but will invest the rest.
