    Next week is a big one. Kim will win if she survives next week. The numbers just don't work out for a blindside after this
    She has an idol too. So I'd think that if she doesn't win immunity next week, she'll play the idol just in case. Best scenario for her is just winning immunity next week and then the following immunity, she either wins immunity, or lets someone she wants to keep safe(like chelsea) win and she uses the idol.

    Or maybe she can plan to get people to vote her out and she uses the idol lol. That'd be the perfect plan and it'd make people less mad too cause it'll be one of those "I was only voted out cause of the idol" scenario, which makes the person who was voted out, less mad, which means 1 less angry juror.

      I think Kim may have messed up by not playing the idol and saving Kat. She only has 1 strong alliance left. The others will do whatever to get them farther in the game, but only if they all realize it. With Kat still in the game, the 3 could have ensured that at worse there would be a tie.

        Why would she need to play the idol? It was her decision that Kat was going. If she wanted Kat to stay, she would have.

        There's no way the remaining people will realize it. Christina doesn't realize anything. Alicia thinks she can win regardless of who she's facing in the finals. Tarzan doesn't have any sort of numbers(so he's just hoping for luck to get to the end) and Sabrina thinks she's in the main alliance(originally of 4) with Kim and Chelsea

          - Off the top of my head, I've never seen a bigger ponderosa meltdown than Kat in the first ponderosa video. There's a reason why they have a doctor/psychologist in the van. All the scenes with Kat cracked me up.

          - Kim is in such complete control of this game the editors don't even tease Kim being booted in any of the previews. Even on Redemption Island, despite the fact Boston Rob was in complete control of the game from start to finish, they at least teased the fact he was in danger in one of the previews. The HII that Kim holds hasn't been mentioned in several weeks. She should beat every single person left in the game 9-0 unless we get bitter jury members. If she wins, she's the best one time female player in Survivor history and will be under consideration for best player of all-time. Based on the fact she's won 3 of the last 4 challenges, I have a feeling she didn't go all out in the comps pre-merge.

          - One change I would like to see involves the prize money. If the jury members, 2nd place, and 3rd place players all got the same prize money you might see players more willing to make moves after the merge. If you're someone like Tarzan that has no chance to win the game, he's financially better off coasting to the Top 5 as opposed to risk being the 1st or 2nd person booted after the merge. By doing nothing, he's going to make at least an extra $50,000 (which is a lot of money for %99 of the population). Outside of the million dollars, the prize money is never discussed on the broadcast. I have no doubt on some level the secondary prize money is taken into consideration by some of the contestants when it comes to making or not making moves.

          Edit: Kat and her cousin showed up on RTVZone last night. She had a great poop story to share, lol.

            It wasn't Kim's decision to vote out Kat, it was the other women that wanted it. Kim didn't want to rock the boat as it draws too much attention to her and puts the other idiot women in their place. The other women seem to all think that they are in control in their delusional minds and Kim let them continue to think that.

            The potential problem is that Kim now doesn't have the numbers to survive if the others join together. If Kat was still there and Sabrina is gone, the numbers would be 3-3 and I don't think there would be any chance of the other 3 getting 1 more to vote out Kim. Sabrina is the only one that can persuade them to turn on Kim.

            Its a long shot, but I think she made the worse choice.

              She didn't go all out. Even in this past challenge,before it happened she was questioning if she should try to win or not(cause she didn't need to win,and winning would just make her look like more of a threat)

              If she wins, I still don't think she'll be one of the best of all time. But for sure one of the best female seasons in survivor history. Next to ones like Parv(in fans vs faves) and Steph(Guatemala I think was the one she dominated). Would be first real good female winner of survivor since fans vs faves and that was 8 seasons ago!

                It's hard to judge who is the best player of all-time because there are various factors involved (people have played 2,3, and 4 times).

                If you look at the results, Sandra should be the best player of all-time because she's the only 2 time winner. Despite her 2 wins, I don't consider her the best player of all-time. At this point, my vote would go to Parvati. The one rule I do have is that you have to be a winner to even be considered the GOAT. I would throw Kim (if she wins) into the mix but I would need some time to see where she ranks.

                I feel like strong females don't always get a fair edit in Survivor (this is something Jerri brought up on Rob Has A Podcast).

                  I will give Kim a ton of credit in that she has been dialed in to the game the entire season. I would imagine that with lack of sleep, hunger and annoyance of others that would be a REALLY tough task to accomplish.

                    I think someone like Yul should be considered the best social player in the history of survivor. I remember watching back his final tribal and the way the jury asked him questions,and way he answered, was probably the best of all final tribals ever.

                    Best in challenges should be Colby.

                    Best strategist should be Russell or Earl(though he could also be considered one of best social players)

                    But like you said, real hard to determine best player cause some played multiple seasons, but there's diff aspects to think about when determining best overall player in survivor such as strategy,social skills,challenges and other stuff

                      I did not expect Tarzan to act so rational in this confessional and this video is starting to make me believe he has been playing the crazy character role this whole time.

                          The whole loved one conversation was stupid. If I was there, I would have said if you wanted to see your loved one so much, leave the game. Don't come on survivor, you made the choice, no one made you and can leave whenever you want.

                            I'm not sure I that follow this post, maybe I missed an interview or something? But from what I saw the main complaints about Kat's choices to take on the reward came from Sabrina and Chelsea. They weren't upset that Kat didn't choice them. They were upset that she didn't pick other people (Tarzan and Christina). Neither Tarzan or Christina seemed that upset. So who would you say that to?

                              It was at Sabrina and Chelsea. They were using it to get Kat out. Tarzan and Christina were logical and knew the game would be over in 1 week. Sabrina and Chelsea were also mad that they didn't get picked, but if they said that, they couldn't use it against Kat. If they were picked, Kat is probably still in the game.

                                Based on what the preview says for the next episode, sounds like something big is gonna happen.

                                Here's basically what I think the preview means:
