I'm gonna be bold (maybe even stupid) and say at least 25 or 30 shows.

I dunno. There were a couple of answers on Wednesday's show that were pretty easy for me that he didn't get.  Fatigue may set in and at that point he will be beatable.

 Randy,

Considering you were the one who clued me into this ahead of a lot of people here, are you trying to tell us something?? :O :O

 Plausible, though. That million-dollar total he proposed averages out to $35,375.80 a game. Now that he's won twelve games and $410,158, that averages to $34,179.83 a game.

Thank you very much for that nice little spoiler. I'm so glad that I got to see that before I could see the show!

Honest to god...

Yeah, thanx for the spoiler...

Well, anyway...

He is at about $35K a show at this point, so three more wins gets him to #4 all time in syndicated (>$500K, only behind the two millionaires on Millionaire and the Masters' winner on Jeopardy!), and then it'd take about that many more, which would be right about the end of the season, right?

I'm beginning to think he can only be beaten by himself, so we could have a run of massive proportions here.

I'll say that he'll get 20, then screw up somewhere, only to win another few...then he'll be back next season.

 I think those who answer this question run a BIG risk of spoiling it for others. Since I know what happens, I will keep my mouth shut.

 Five weeks left, long enough for Ken to steamroll over 50 more opponents, unless a certain someone can do it on Monday.
