It must be painful! Janos Pigerl participated in “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” an extremely confident figure. In the great “Gamer Special”, the psychology student had an easy answer to most of the questions from the moderator Günther Jauch (64). The Cologne resident had to deal with tougher rules.
If the candidates manage not to use a wild card until the 16,000 euro question, then four are available to them. In addition, the prize money was doubled, men and women played for a total of two million euros. A goal that Pigerl almost achieved. Only two questions separated the student from the mega win, but then it was played.
Failed due to sports question
In response to Cologne’s € 750,000 question, Jauch wanted to know in which sport Germany could take home the most gold medals at the Olympic Games. Although Pigerl really knows the sport, the question paused for a moment. Finally he used the 50/50 wild card. The remaining answers: athletics or rowing.
Pigerl had ruled out athletics from the start, so he ultimately chose rowing. And that’s even though he actually had two Jokers left. Don’t you want to cover yourself? Did you really go through this? Jauch wanted to be sure. But Pigerl had taken the motto “Gamer Special” very seriously and went for it.
“He just had this gamer gene”
However, this courage was not worth it. Athletics was the correct answer and the student had to settle for 1000 euros. “Shit,” Pigerl swore afterward. “He was a little too greedy.” After the broadcast, however, he endured his loss with composure: “He caught me on the wrong foot. I misspelled, that’s how it works sometimes. ”
Therefore, Jauch was extremely impressed by Pigerl’s laid-back manner. “He had this gamer gene,” the moderator enthused. I think that’s great. That’s cool, that’s brave, that’s aggressive. ”
By the way: the Cologne resident was not the only candidate who bet. After him, Niklas Bayer took the chair, who fought valiantly up to the 250,000 euro question. It was there, the psychologist also went home with only 1000 euros. But neither did he regret much: «That happens (…). That’s the game. “(Klm)
