What are the odds of a contestant getting the first Daily Double in the Jeopardy round followed immediately by the second and third Daily Doubles in Double Jeopardy, leading to a potential octuple multiplication of their score?

So wait, when do they get their daily doubles? At the end of each round where they have the most money?

Yes. The final clue in Round 1 and the first two clues in Round Two.

Wow, this blows my mind. Somehow I always thought they were random. I guess I haven't watched enough Jeopardy.

They are randomized. There is one for Jeopardy and there are two for Double Jeopardy.
