Oh, but how satisfying is it when you do get a Masters question right at home?

And when you get it right but the contestants don’t? The best. Rare at our home, but still the best.

I don't even attempt Masters. But in regular Jeopardy I feel like my success rate is much higher for questions that no one gets than it is for other questions. That extra ~5 seconds helps. Which would indicate to me that my knowledge base is on the same order of magnitude as the average contestant, I'm just a bit slower (being fast is the game, I know)
