Rahim Oberholtzer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rahim Oberholtzer was a game show contestant on Twenty One in 2000.

In his four wins and bonus games, Oberholtzer won $1,120,000, which broke the previous single player winnings record held by John Carpenter, who won $1 million on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

A few weeks later, Oberholtzer's record was broken on Greed by Curtis Warren, who added $1 million to his previous show winnings, giving him $1,410,000 in cash.

Oberholtzer ranks eleventh on the all-time winnings list. He was since passed by Carpenter, who won $125,000 during the Millionaire tournament of champions, Ashlee Register, winner of the Duel tournament, and the first 2 millionaires on The Price Is Right $1,000,000 Spectacular, Adam Rose and Michael Haynes.
