Survivor: Edge of Extinction

[PeoplesChampGB]

No way Vanuatu is lower tier. Chris outsmarted a whole women's alliance and won the **** thing single-handedly. It was one of the greatest runs in Survivor history.

Maybe I'll rewatch it one day. I'm ranking them based on how much I remember them all and the winner themselves. Chris is one of the winners I barely hear mentioned in Survivor history. The cast as a whole, next to Eliza, I dont even remember anyone else.

Really though it was no risk with huge reward.

He either wins and has the strongest resume of the final 3 or he loses and he's out, if he puts Gavin up to make fire and Gavin loses Chris isn't beating Devens anyway.

Still a big move but he had nothing to lose and a million dollars to win.

It's rarely mentioned but you also have to consider the prize for the runners up. I believe they get $100,000. There was still an incentive to put someone else there.

True but in that position where I spent most of the game on the edge of extinction if I make that move and win 1 million or I don't make that move and I can win 100,000 I am taking that gamble 100 times out of 100.

But saying there was no risk was overdoing it on my part for sure, would suck to walk away without 100k but knowing that million is mine if I take Rick out I'd put it on the line as Chris did.
