BB10: Who do you think is playing with the best strategy and why?

Question

Watching BB after dark last night, made me ask this question. Personally, I think Dan and Keesha have the Best Strategy with Keesha topping the list. Keesha was in a huge alliance, and during that time she made friends with someone in another alliance as well as a floater. That way when ther alliance broke up, she had Memphis fighting to keep her in the house and Renny (the floater) who is now the HOH, not even thinking about putting her up. Also, when Michelle had her on the chopping block last week it was a 6 to 0 vote to get Libra out.

Say what you will about the girl, NO one is gunning for her except April and she is on her way out the door. She was the mastermind behind the Jesse eviction and Michelle took it out on Libra. It will be interesting to see how far she gets.

Answer 1

Dan is playing the best strategy. No one views him as a threat AT ALL. Unfortunately he took the America's Player challenge and it was out of his own hands but one half of the house wants him gone. (Jerry, MIchelle, April) However, since he is being smart, calm and collected, they aren't gunning for him right now, otherwise he would have been gone last week.  Ollie is staying off the radar also, too bad he is attacthed to April. He is a target now that they are so close, but if Renny gets her home than Ollie would be in good shape also.  Until she won HOH Renny was no ones target either. She was playing the game great also. Everyone right now has someone who would want them home but I still say Dan is the safest pick to stay for another week or 2 guaranteed because of his vulnerability and weakness.

Answer 2

I see your point about Keesha, and she is playing well, but I think Dan has done a masterful job of staying under the radar, despite the efforts of Jerry.  Dan has also treated everyone in the house respectfully, including Jerry, and that will be a plus if Dan is in the final two.  However, the numbers have dwindled to the point that Dan needs to abandon his strategy of throwing competitions -- and he may have done so, he got one right answer in the last HOH comp, and did well in the Food comp.

Assuming April goes home this week, Dan needs to win HOH next week to get rid of Jerry, because Jerry is really the only person targeting Dan at this point in the game.  As fewer and fewer people are left in the house, however, that will change.

I also think Memphis and Renny are playing rather well.  Jerry is just a mean old man who is trying to stay with the majority, and while that worked when there were 10+ people in the house, it doesn't work any more.  April has also alienated too many people, and Ollie has just ridden April's skirttails.

Answer 3

Dan. He's the under the radar guy and it's really working to his advantage  at the moment. I would like to see Dan compete a little more assertively in competitions so that he can guarantee himself a spot in the final 4. I am praying that he wins HOH next week so he can get rid of Jerry is he isn't evicted this week. But I am rooting for Dan all the way! TEAM DAN!

Answer 4

I would say Dan is right now...he is almost completely under the radar while the rest of the house is at each other's throats.By pulling this kind of strategy of being weak, he can more than likely last 3 more weeks without difficulty.

Answer 5

Michelle and Memphis and Dan I think are playing the best

Michelle, everyone in the house think is with Ollie and April

She and Memphis are looking out for each other

She is doing her job well, trying to get April out

I think Keesha time will come, that both her and Renny will be put up

I think it's when Ollie wins HOH

Ollie, Dan and Memphis have to start winning HOH, if the wrong person wins, they can be out

If you notice the last HOH, Dan and Memphis got out as soon as April, Jerry and Ollie was out.  Before they would not wait that long

Renny is so nuts, it was crazy for them to let her have HOH

I do not think they will let that happen again

Keesha will keep them safe, Michelle will keep them safe

Both will let Keesha and Michelle win HOH

I think Memphis and Dan are playing the best game

I think Keesha and Michelle are playing Smart

I think Ollie and April thought they had the game won

I think after April leaves, Ollie will be dangerous, i would not count him out

Renny and Jerry are just there

I do not think Dan or Memphis or Michelel are floaters

It think the plan they had fell a part, and did what was needed to stay in the game

Answer 6

I think Memphis has managed to manoeuvre into a power position.  Dan's 'weak' strategy is getting a little old, and it's only a matter of time before people see through it.  Renny may have really blown it with her nominations this week (she should be voted out on the basis of her voice alone, anyway).  If April goes, Ollie has no strategy. I must admit, you make a good point in regards to Keesha.
