Ken is Gone

Yes my friends, Ken Jennings, has been defeated on Jeopardy. He had 74 consecutive wins to his name, and won over $2.5 million dollars, the most of any game show contestant. During the show, Ken was doing really well until he missed both daily doubles in double jeopardy and only had a marginal lead going into the final round. After Ken incorrectly guessed at the final answer, the crowd gasped in unison as Nancy, a California realtor, became the new reigning champ. What was Ken's downfall? Here's the clue:

It is H&R Block. And H&R Block is making sure Ken will always remember them since the company has offered him free tax preparation for life.
