"... the rest of the house will turn on J & J." What rest of the house? If one of the so called power group leaves, there will be only 2 or 3 left (depending if Russ goes). I think if Russ is already on the block and Jeff takes him down to put up Jesse and Nat, Russ would not gun for Jeff. Since Kevin, Lydia, Michele wouldn't gun for J&J if any of the power group left, the power group would no longer be...the power group. I think Jeff will use the coup with the intent of sending either Jesse/Nat home

LOL as Jeff said when Nat was UMM talking in the back yard! He said Jordan and I have been out here in the Projects all along! No one included us anyway LOL! The other side of the house was against them anyway ! They just at times had bigger targets! I hope he uses this operTUNAty to get rid Of Jessi

(1) Jeff can NOT reveal to ANYONE that he has the power. (2) Jeff can ONLY use the power right before the live eviction vote on Thursday night. This is how I see the week going (IMHO): Chima will nominate Russell and either Michele or Lydia. She wants to backdoor Russell, but as Ronnie found out this week, there’s no guarantee that the Veto winner will use it, so she won't take the risk of him not being eligible to be booted. Come eviction night, if it’s Michele and Lydia, Jeff may not use the power (although he still should,) but if Russell is sitting there then he will for sure. Jeff has mentioned before that he’d love to see Jessie and Natalie nominated together, but his fear would be that Jessie would be the one staying. I still see him nominating those 2 and hoping that everyone votes out Jessie. Jordan and Kevin would vote out Jessie. Lydia and Russell would vote out Natalie. I'm not sure about Michele, but I think she'd evict Jessie since he's the bigger threat, and Ronnie was "his boy." I'm not sure if Jeff or Chima would be able to vote. If either was allowed to vote, Jeff would vote out Jessie while Chima would evict Natalie.

Everything hinges on who gets POV, if Nat or Jessie gets it, Jeff will not be able to put them up together.

I think that Jeff will use it as a power play against Jessie and Nat because that was what he was telling Jordan the other night in the BY. He was saying "if he got HOH... he would do..." The best thing could have happened with Chima winning HOH because you know she will NEVER put up J/N and can not vote for either one of them to stay or go... so by putting up both of them at the same time they have no one to vote for them. Only Lydia would vote for sure for Nat to go... I think everyone else sees Jessie for who he is and will send him packing!!! We can only hope. Now Jessie can blame America again for his eviction! ha ha ha Jessie looks like "we" got ya again! LOL

Very good analysis Cr8ofdata. Chima's HOH may well end up having been nothing more than an opportunity to chill in the HOH room.Next Thursday night will be exciting.

Jeff could break the tie, but it couldn't happen since Michelle wanted Jessie out at the very first opportunity. Natalie to go: Lydia, Russell Jessie to go: Jeff, Jordan,Kevin,Michele But let's say Michelle decides to evict Natalie, then Jeff can break the tie and evicts Jessie. I could only hope. It's strange how none of them wondered about a tiebreaker.

I'm thinking that some of the HG's think the power has already expired. I hope the DR doesn't stir up trouble for Jeff by poking the HG into focusing on the Coup. He'll be better off if he springs the Coup on them unawares.

Well the only people that couldn't vote would be the HOH and the nominees...they never said anything about the person with the power not being able to vote...So if it was a tie, chima would be the tie breaker...Where would she go with her vote? Save Jesse or Natalie?

But I thought since Jeff would be "overthrowing" the HOH, he would also be able to break the tie. The HOH and POV winner only are safe from Jeff but HOH no longer has any power. This is the only detail that Julie did not make clear and unfortunately Jeff may not even consider the tiebreaker and who can break a possible tie, hopefully Julie will come to his rescue when announcing... Jeff, in case of a tiebreaker you can break the tie. Oh wishful thinking...

I think Cricket posted the Youtube of Julie explaining the Coup rules to Boogie... This is a summary.. *Coup D'Etat winner can overthrow the Head of Household by replacing the two nominees with anyone you want. (Does NOT say the Coup holder becomes the HoH.) *Can use the power only one time, right before live voting. *HOH and winner of the POV are immune (can not be nominated). *HOH does not vote. *Coup D'Etat winner does not vote. *In the event of a tie...CDE winner is tie breaker vote.}

I think too much can happen from now until next Thursday to make a prediction, for me, on how Jeff will play the CDT. I lurvs me my Chicago Jeff but he doesn't always come across as much of a player as the others. I do think right now he knows Jesse and Nat have to be dealt with. But if something happens with one of China's noms....say she puts up Lydia and Michele. If either of them cause turmoil or angst and freak out with being put up, Jeff could just say he's keeping things as is because they all have to go at some point and the noms were too obnoxious and ruined his time in the yard with Jordan and he'll deal with Jesse and Nat next chance he gets. On the other-hand....Jeff has shown a few glimpses of game play and might have it in him to make a move on Jesse and Nat no matter what if he doesn't want to squander his chance this week. I just hope that Jesse and Nat get on Jeffs nerves all week with big heads and threats to the entire house. Bying saying things like -If you don't follow Chima's lead you will be next!- If They start doing that sort of bullying they will be put up, I think. I'm fairly confident that Jeff will not reveal his CDT power, so that is a relief off my mind. I guess I'm thinking who ever is most obnoxious and makes the house more difficult to be in is going to be the determining factor on how Jeff uses the Coup.

Oh crap!! Jeff cannot vote? Then it would be impossible for Jessie to go and a tie would be impossible. Natalie to go: Lydia, Russell Jessie to go: Kevin, Jordan and here Michelle would be the swing vote... drat...

Jeff started asking last week who people would vote for if he won HOH and put up Jesse and Natalie. He may put feelers out again. Michele has publicly declared which side she is on; I think Jeff can trust her. She has no reason to want to keep Jesse.

Wait if he changes the nominees does that mean the HOH can vote since in reality her nominees DON'T count, and then her nominees can vote since they aren't nominees anymore? (Am I confusing anyone else besides myself?)....Let's say Chima nominates Lydia/Kevin...Michelle is POV...Jeff overthrows that and nominates Jesse/Natalie.. Now a whole new set of people...So... 1. Lydia/Kevin not on block...can they vote? 2. Chima still HOH but her nominees are gone...can she vote? 3. Jeff nominated new people (Jesse/Natalie)so basically he put the people up ... so in reality he is HOH for about 20 minutes...can he vote? 4. Or are the only people eligible to vote, Russel, Michelle, Kevin and Jordan?

If we follow the rules that were given to Boogie: If Jeff removes L/K, and puts up J/N, then L & K can vote. HOH (Chima), Jesse & Natalie don't vote. Jeff doesn't vote. Lydia, Michelle, Kevin, Jordan, Russell are the only voters. In this scenario there can be no tie.

Emm I'm thinking if Jeff uses it he and the 2 he nominates are the only ones who can't vote.

I think Jeff can vote - there was no mention of him becoming the HOH (who can only vote in a tie), just that he could replace the noms. My interpretation is that the game then continues as before - the HOH (Chima) and the two nominees are the only ones who don't vote. I see it as similar to POV - once you're off the block, you can vote; and if you are the person who had the POV and used it, you can also vote as normal (unless it's the HOH who wins POV).

Jeff can not vote. The official rules have been posted numerous times. He only votes if it is a tie, and it can not be a tie. Five will be voting. Not voting, the two on the block, Chima, and Jeff.

I recall Julie saying this year that the CDE winner would break the tie. Didn't watch the Boogie season, so I'm not getting them confused.

I am so excited that Jeff got it and that Chima got HOH. I can't stand it! How can I wait until next Thurs? There was some talk last night from Chima of putting Jeff & Jordan. Oh My God! That would be a dream to see Jeff stand up & take them both down! Either way I think he'll replace whoever is up there with Jessie/Natalie. Jeff is doing so good keeping his secret powers hidden. He could be an actor! I can't wait to see Jordan's face next week when she finds out. My dream would be that Jeff wins HOH after he sends Jessie home!!

I'm hoping, when he makes his noms, Jeff says," I'm nomming Jessie and Nat and hope you all evict Jessie." That could get Russ's vote.

I would like Jeff to say: "I'm nominating Jessie and Nat" then turn with a smile to Nat and say, "Don't worry Natale... you're just the pawn"...LOL

Where does it say that CDE holder cannot vote if he replaces the nominations? Did Julie or anyone at CBS say that? I would think that would be a major consideration in using it or not. There a few votes available now, so every one must be calculated.
