Tournament of Champions[]
In the fourth game of quarterfinal matchups, Robert went up against Richard Kaplan and John Kelly. He answered sixteen responses correctly and two incorrectly. Despite trailing throughout the entirety of the match, Robert wagered just enough to take him to the semifinals, winning by only $300.
In the second game of semifinal matchups, Robert went up against Jerome Vered and 1992 Seniors Tournament champion, Leonard Schmidt. He got eighteen responses correct and only missed one. The match was back and forth between Robert and Jerome up until Jerome managed to get his second DD correctly, making him nearly unbeatable. However, in FJ!, Robert almost wagered enough to beat him, but he lost by just $1.
Despite losing his semifinal game, he still impressed Alex, who likened him to 1990 ToC winner Bob Blake during the first Final game in the ToC.
10th Anniversary Tournament[]
In the third semifinal match, Robert went up against Frank Spangenberg and Lionel Goldbart. He answered twenty responses correctly and three incorrectly. His correct responses still weren't enough to catch up to Frank, who was nearly unstoppable. Because of that, he missed out on the finals.
Ultimate Tournament of Champions[]
In the twenty-eighth game of Round 1 matchups, he went up against Bill Pitassy and 2004 ToC winner Russ Schumacher. He answered twenty-four responses correctly (including one DD) and two incorrectly. Robert was leading throughout the entire match, earning him an easy spot in Round 2.
In the eighth game of Round 2 matchups, he went up against 1987 ToC 2nd runner-up Eugene Fineman and 1996 ToC winner Michael Dupee. He answered seventeen responses correctly and two incorrectly. From the start, Robert struggled to catch up to Michael, however in FJ!, Robert was the only one to get the question correct, placing him as part of the Elite Eighteen.
In the fourth game of Round 3 matchups, he went up against John Cuthbertson and 1992 Teen Tournament winner April McManus. He answered twenty-four responses correctly (including one DD) and two incorrectly. This game was the exact opposite from his last matchup. He was leading for nearly the whole time, but was the only person to get his FJ! response wrong, making him miss out on Round 4.
