Sooooo, as you could probably tell Rob made deals to earn his Royal Flush. Particularly, he made a deal with Natalie, his arch nemesis of all people and guaranteed her safety for her poker card. Will he keep his word?
Boo right now has basically flipped. It's smart timing now with Brenda out the picture he can go with Natalie like he has always intended for awhile now. It was apparent he was loyal to Rob and Natalie but he would be forced to make a decision between them, and he has chosen Natalie.
This puts Rob's alliance at 3 to 5, but a tie can certainly be forced here since the group still has held onto a few crystal powers, and my rules allow them to be used again through the revote. Even if they win a tiebreaker, next round it become 3 to 4 to again and they forced to use a power again to beat their number disadvantage, but it is that alliance's only shot at this point.
If the tides do turn on Rob/Steph/Pete, they will be forced onto an immunity run cause I don't see any of them being able to assimilate with the others at this point, and Natalie/Boo will be in a fantastic position to make the Final 2.

This round seems like it could go in any direction.
Pete wants Nat out. Boo wants Steph out. Rob wants Gina out.
...how many plots are converging at once? I have no idea what's going to happen! Heck, it may turn against Boo for all I know. This could be EPIC.

Ted Rogers 9:51 pm so you got Gina on board for Final 4 with Steph and Rob?
Pete 9:51 pm yes And fuck boo
Ted Rogers 9:51 pm but Boo flipped so it tied
Pete 9:51 pm Morgan said she switches, she showed me all the fake bullshit boo said and she knows it now
Ted Rogers 9:51 pm Morgan will vote Kat in revote?
Pete 9:51 pm thats what she says ill post convos tohugh but tomorrow
Ted Rogers 9:51 pm oh very very interesting
Pete 9:52 pm Then Boo is OUT
Essentially, Pete has convinced both Gina and Morgan to flip, and Boo changed sides to help Natalie out. What a fucking mess, I didnt think we would see a tie LOL. Rob was MVP last round, playing the idol on Steph, Pete has saved Steph again this round. Steph is going to have a hard time if she makes the end now I think because it's appearing like her "boys" are protecting her every round. Steph needs to step up her game very quickly!

The best thing I can think of is use all the info I have and just turn people against each other. I have ways of justifying what I did but I'm not sure that will be enough. We'll see.
Scramble time. ...does this guy have any idea what he's doing? If he tries to throw everyone under the bus, that will only make them MORE against him! There's a little something called "damage control" that he needs to learn how to do. It starts with voting Kat in the revote. It then involves him defending himself and trying to make a new deal with somebody. If him and Nat can pick up two more, they have majority. If he tries to use everything against everyone, even NAT will vote for him. Rob, Pete, and Steph aren't going to let him get away with this, even if he apologizes. And he can't explain himself. Looking like Boo is doomed for 7th... unless he pulls off a miracle immunity win, but I don't see Pete and Steph allowing that to happen.

Looking like Boo is doomed for 7th... unless he pulls off a miracle immunity win, but I don't see Pete and Steph allowing that to happen. If he knows Kat is done anyway via crystals and morgan flipping, than yes thats his best move, to vote Kat with them. But Boo knows now that he destroyed his trust to that group so he needs to desperate things now in order to have a chance. Boo has done so many shady things the entire time within their alliance because he wants to sacrifice his game for Natalie and he got caught and they havent been able to put full trust in since. Boo only selling point is to get Rob,Steph and Pete to turn on another by how threatening they are to each other. Pete got Gina and Morgan to flip, that speaks volumes, does Rob want to Final 5 with Pete Gina and Morgan? Does he trust Pete wont make a move at Final 5 and take out him or Steph? Maybe Pete would want to break up that pair earlier when he doesn't need them anymore. Likewise, does Rob/Steph want to make a move against Pete before it's too late? Boo and Natalie actually have a small window of opportunity to convince 1 side either way, more likely the Rob/Steph side. But his chances are very slim in my opinion, he has basically exposed himself and Natalie as a pair, and they are pretty much isolated, so they are easy and obvious targets. Rob/ StephPete/Gina/MorganBoo/ NatalieThat's basically how it looks right now, according to Pete: Her being Gina here. Smart move by Pete, this is going to be a messy finish!

I have no idea where Morgan really stands. No idea at all. That one has been rather unpredictable and I kind of wonder if she is actually playing to win. Given her confessions, it is hard to decipher. This could go in several different ways. I expect Boo to make himself a target, but perhaps Boo can convince Rob to blindside Pete. That could make things even more interesting. I love predicting this one. It's so much fun! And I actually can say that for once quite a few of them actually know what the best move is for them, which means even more craziness
