Adam Levin

Season 35 player (2019-04-29).

Adam’s final total of $53,999 in his sole appearance is the highest non-winning score of all time, and Adam would remain the only contestant to score higher than $50,000 and not win until Dane Reighard finished in second place in his third appearance (show #8508, aired 2021-11-10) with a total of $51,999. Had Adam won his first game, he would’ve broken the record for the highest amount won in a player’s first win, surpassing Myron Meyer's one-day total of $50,000 (show #4139, aired 2002-09-05).
