Last night Shelli admiring Vanessa's game. Jeeebus.... All that's left for Vanessa to do is decide who she wants to have 2nd place. That part is predictable. Who it will be is a toss up though, I think.

Vanessa has got some giant balls. Tells JMac she may need to put him up but if he wins veto and uses it on himself he HAS to vote how she tells him to. She tells Steve basically 'I know we had a deal but I might have to put you up anyway, too bad for you'. She tells everyone 'if you send me to jury I'll poison all of them against you and you will not win'. And she managed to get Liz to agree to take her on the luxury trip instead of Austin.

Sweet Baby Jesus! I don't like to resort to personal attacks, but this vile creature is truly ugly both inside and out.

I love it!  Not only did Vanessa do all of the above, she forced everyone to reveal all the side deals that they had with each other.  She needed to discover the "discrepancies" and determine whether or not these deals were legitimate or if people were lying to her or other people.   She has made deals with everyone that allows her to control who goes to jury regardless of who wins HOH.   Vanessa has it set up where no one can put her up and that if someone does the others cannot vote her out unless they break their word.  This is incredible!  And don't get me even started with her F2 deals.  

Instead of Jessie, who has become a BB staple, I would have rather had some version of a Pandora's Box.  For this season to be hyped up with promises of different twists every week, BB could have at least gave them that.  I think it is too late now, isn't it?

What is wrong with Austin?  Surely, he must be blinded by love.  He compared Liz to Janelle Pierzina and Rachel Reilly?? What is he smoking?  Okay, so Liz won 3 HOH's and one POV, hardly as impressive as Janelle's 4 HOH's and 5 POV's and Rachel's 4 HOH's and 2 POV's. These girls were much stronger competitors. There is no way that Liz Nolan is in the same league, IMO.

What did I miss? Did Vanessa admit to being a professional poker player?  Seems the talk on the daily coverage suggests that she told everyone the truth.  I guess her revelation did not have any negative feedback because Austin was suggesting possible income opportunities for Vanessa.

I have to pick James by default.  This season there has not been any player that have won me over completely.  None of whom I would like to personally meet.  But I think James, with all his flaws, is the best of the bunch. 

Van vs Liz - ?? No idea who will go

 

No idea?  Is it possible that Austin and Julia would not keep Liz??  It would be hilarious to see her face if her boyfriend or sister voted her out!

He said to the camera that he wanted to make a big play to be remembered on BB.  He threatened to put up Vanessa if the Veto was used.  Steve is so full of crap, he will never put up Vanessa!  He would be totally lost without her!

I have to agree, this is one of the worst seasons ever.  The majority of the HG's seem to have no idea of how to play this game.  It looks like they recruited 90% of the cast.   The asinine decisions that most of them make leaves no doubt that these people are so far out of their element.  For them to happily allow a twin to come into the house and compete against them for the grand prize should go down as the stupidest cast decision in BB history. They found out about the twin twist in Week 2 or  3 and had ample opportunity to get rid of Liz before Week 6 when Julia would enter to stay.  It amazes me that most of the HG's looked forward to playing with a set of twins instead of plotting to get rid of Liz ASAP.

I wonder if Austin is man enough to use the Veto on his love Liz? That is one way for him to test if Liz is really into him or not. He knows he could count on Vanessa's vote ( she swore she would keep him over either twin) and he only needs two votes to stay. But will Liz vote for him to stay over her sis? It would be fun to find out.    

Yessss!  Someone finally will break up those twins.  Although I wish Vanessa would have the guts to vote out Liz.  But she will vote with Austin to keep Liz because Vanessa needs those jury votes.

Wouldn't it be fun to see BB showmances competing against each other as couples? These are the ones I would like to see competing.  Did I miss any of your favorites?  Who do you think would win? I would bet my money on Brenchel.

a- Jessica and Eric from Season 8 

b- Chelsia and James from Season 9

c- Ollie and April from Season 10

d- Jeff and Jordan from Season 11

e- Rachel and Brendon from Season 12

f- Amanda and McCrae from Season 15

g- Clay and Shelli from Season 17

h- Austin and Liz from Season 17 

Here is a reminder of some of the BB showmances and flirtmances of previous seasons:

I think that if James win HOH she will be on the block.  She's the one who will have ousted Meg, and I don't see James setting that aside. 

 

Whatever the case, it looks like the show tonight will be entertaining.  I hope I can figure out a way to watch it before tomorrow.

True, if James win HOH Vanessa will be sitting there.  But if he doesn't and he survives the next eviction, then he says he will be looking for an alliance.  He might do a JMac, join Vanessa's alliance and wait for a chance to turn on her.

That is because Jmac is lil biatch. He needs vanessa to command him to vote out julia. it is sickning to see how happy he is to working with (for) vanessa. 

He tells the feeds that he hates her and is just waiting for an opportunity to vote her out.  But how will he ever get that opportunity with his head up her a$$.  He needs to take the initiative and vote out Julia.  He should take his chances with James, Meg and Steve which would give him better odds of making it to F2.

I believe it was in last years game

Really?  Can you remember the name of that comp?  They had a Hide and Seek Veto comp back in Season 8, was there another one after that?

As much as I dislike Vanessa, I have to respect her game play.  She has positioned herself with three people in front of her and two behind her. What a coup if she is able to pull James in behind her.  If all goes according to her plan, and people stay true to their alliances, she is golden.  If Steve, James or JMac wins HOH, she will see that they target the Austwins.  If the Austwins win HOH, she will see that they target JMac or James. All Vanessa and Steve has to do is throw HOH comps until F5 . They would, of course, go for Vetos to prevent being backdoored.  Playing both ends against the middle is the mark of a true BB Champion.  Kudos to her!  

Although I hope that her plans somehow blow up in her face, I don't see it happening with so many people smooching on her backside.

Yes, tomorrow night is a double eviction.

It was the "Hide an object within the house, then everyone try to find one another's objects. Last unfound item wins Veto" veto.

Dang, I haven't seen this comp in years. Exactly when was the last time they had this type of veto competition, can anyone remember?

The should forget about being American Fravorite...maybe audition for "American Horror Stories..."....

Hilarious, LOL!

I hope Johnny Mac does not win Americas Favorite Player.  I am not a fan of Johnny Mac.  Although his DR's are slightly humorous, he comes across as silly to me, even though he is obviously intelligent.  I thought he was too quick to throw comps and help to do the dirty work for Shelli and Vanessa without being formally aligned with them. He is the ultimate floater.  He floats from one group to the other without being committed to anyone but himself. I feel that he is really cowardly, but when he told Julie that he would go after Meg, I lost what little respect I had for him. After Vanessa and the Austwins put him on the block and evicted him, he decided he would target Meg??  Personally, I cannot wait until he is evicted again!

Vanessa is playing the best game so far.  If she makes it to F2, it would be hard for her not to win it all, regardless of who would be sitting next to her.  

Hmm.. even when she cries when she's alone... I bet she's aware of the cameras on her.

She's backing all her bets for sympathy when it's all over.

I have to agree, Slowpoke.  I just think it is hard to believe that someone who makes a living being strong willed, strong minded and stone faced can cry so easily.  I am not saying that all of her tears are fake, I am sure some were stress related and others were spilled over a feeling of betrayal, but the vast majority of her crying episodes were fabricated, in my estimation.

I am not a gambler like Vanessa, but I would gamble every penny that I own on Vanessa "crying" as a strategy.  She knows from previous seasons that most men and women are sympathetic to women crying.  She knows that her crying can soften the HG's and make them rethink their decisions. It makes her appear vulnerable and genuine and not the cut throat player that she is.  I have seen her crying to HG's with her voice trembling and then seconds later talking revenge against others in a clear crisp voice. I totally believe that she is trying to act the part of a misunderstood and wrongly accused person who is all alone in the house, just trying to compete with the duos and trios all around her.  Oh woe is her!

Marty, that pic is hilarious!  And soooo Vanessa.  You really hit the nail on the head, LOL. 

Vanessa needs to manipulate JMac and Steve to vote out Julia.  She should let them know how much better it would be for their game to separate the Austwins. She could tell Austin and Liz  that she tried to convince them to vote out Meg but they won't budge. They do not like the idea of the trio dominating the house. She could explain to Austin and Liz that they could still keep their Scamper Squad and, with JMac, evict James and Meg later.  Of course Austin and Liz will be pissed but they would not make waves because to do so would start a war between factions and jeopardize their chances to make F4.  But Vanessa would never do this.

I was hoping that James would try to get back in the game and really put forth an effort to win, but he admits he gave up on the competition early.  I think he realizes that he would have to win either the Veto or HOH  from now until the end of the season to avoid eviction.  He knows that Vanessa and Austwins will have to target him because he is the biggest threat in the house standing between them and the win.  He probably has resigned himself to going to jury. Let us see what he will do in the veto competition.

I have to wonder if Vanessa's constant flood of tears is all part of her game strategy.  If she doesn't backdoor Austin or one of the twins this week, her chances of winning this thing goes down dramatically.  I guess we'll see just how smart she really is if she gets to put up a replacement nominee.....

Of course, her tears are strategy and no one is being fooled by them.  I believe they all know what Vanessa is doing now.  But the only problem is that Vanessa is winning when her back is against the wall.  The Austwins have to cater to her decisions this week in order to keep themselves safe.  If James, Meg or Johnny Mac had won HOH, they would have been encouraging them to backdoor Vanessa.  Steve is the only one who would not have a backdoor plan for Vanessa.  He needs her to make it to F2.  She is the only one who could take him, Johnny Mac won't make it to F4.   She would have to put up Liz or Julia as a replacement, that's the only way she could be positive that James or Meg would go.

Yep, that's why anyone with a brain would have gotten rid of one of the three by now

I agree, why they let that extra person in the house is beyond me.  They had several weeks to get Liz out before her twin came in.  An extra vote for your side is also an extra HG to evict before you can win. Plus that twin could be the very one that causes your eviction. How could anyone except Liz eagerly want her twin in the house?  This should go to show the poor quality of BB players this season.
