I know the Power of 10 show with them is on Tuesday before BB is on... I also remember Julie Chen saying that the houseguests will find out where Daniele and Amber went on tuesday...

Tuesdays show isn't usually a live show... so will they be showing the house the show BEFORE tuesday so they can tape it to air on tuesday? If so we would know the outcome before hand right? I am confused..

Now onto the questions... Any speculation as to who played and how they did?

How much do you think the player took home?

Do you think them having money will make them a target in the house?

my guess (from their expressions) is that Amber did well

I believe Julie said something like "see how one HG did" or something like this

If the hamsters see the show before the vote it could mean Amber getting voted out. I imagine it would make her a target they would see her winning money & figure she has won money already... we haven't lets vote her out. For her sake I DO hope she won something.

I hope that who ever got to play for the big money, won something. It would be real embarrassing to not win anything. Liken it to the rare contestant that craps out on the first couple of questions on Millionaire.

I have a feeling they will be showing Power of 10 live to the houseguests as it airs on Tuesday night. I'm thinking we won't see their reaction to it until Thursday's show - but will hear about it through the live feeds.

I agree if Amb did win it wouldnt be right for BB to let them see before they vote Thurs, could sway votes.

but from production stand point I thhink they will show them the show before Tues so they can show reactions on the Tues show....they might even get to see it today or Mon, to give the editors time

I was under the impression we would see the HG reaction to the show.. Julie said something like that didnt she? LOL

I don't think it would be much different than other comps where HG's win money in the house... I have no idea.

I am gonna look on the cbs website to see if they say anything

I'm repeating myself from the other Power of 10 thread but my speculation is this:

Amber beat Danielle in the first round. Evidence: Amber saw her cousin; Danielle shows no signs of being either happy about seing Nick or sad/paranoid that it wasn't her boyfriend.

Amber lost early. Evidence: the next day she was crying in her room and told Jameka she felt she just sucked at competitions.

I think they will show the houseguests clips of the show on Tuesday or Wednesday (after it's aired) and then show clips of them watching it to us during Thursday's show.

I wrote this on the Current Happenings thread but it more properly should be on this one and so I've copied it here.
****************************

I'm going to play Mary Miss Contrary. Or maybe I should say Devil's Advocate. Whatever.

I don't think Amber won money on POT and here's why.

First of all it's a sure thing that Amber and Dani were sworn to keep the results of the show a secret. I'm 100% certain if either of them blabbed the results they would forfeit any money they might have won. Having said that let's look at how each have behaved since returning from their trip.

1. Dani has been very closed mouth about anything regarding the trip. In fact she's been more stonefaced than ever before in the show.

2. Some have said she didn't mention seeing Nick and that is a clue that she failed early on. However, it is being reported on another board that she said she did see Nick. I haven't heard her say this but if some people did then it may or may not be a clue.

3. She wrote in her blog about taking a trip to Europe after the show ends.

Now Amber:

1. She's too depressed.
2. She told Jameka "I suck at competitions" in a conversation about the trip.
3. She spoke about seeing her cousin. This is not in dispute. She even mentioned it to Julie on the show Thursday night.
4. In one of her prayers today she specifically spoke to God to help her win some money so she could move to the Mid West because she hates Nevada. She doesn't sound like someone who has had an extra luck lately and is depending on money from BB to help her achieve her dream.

5. She is more depressed today than she was yesterday. She doesn't seem to have anything in reserve to look forward to as she might if she had won money on POT.

Finally, and most importantly, the very fact that she spoke openly on National TV about being grateful at seeing her cousin makes me think she's not the least bit worried that she's revealing any secret about the show, ergo, she doesn't have to worry about forfeiture because she didn't win anything anyway.

Anybody agree with this? Discuss.

Thank you very much for this opportunity to speak. (Bows and leaves the stage to thundering applause.)

There was already mention of a "Eurotrip" in either her first HoH blog or in the letter that Daniele got from Nick when she was HoH, so I don't necessarily means that Daniele did/did not win any money.

100xxbbfan -- "There was already mention of a "Eurotrip" in either her first HoH blog or in the letter that Daniele got from Nick when she was HoH, so I don't necessarily means that Daniele did/did not win any money."

Okay, so maybe I'll have to revise or delete that part of my essay but I read somewhere either on here or Jokers that her first blog mentioned a trip to Disneyland. But, I haven't read the blog. I'm only quoting other posters.

Still, I've been watching her face and general demeanor and it just convinces me that she's deliberately being pokerfaced about the trip to NY.

Well, we'll see on Tuesday night, I guess.

I really don't think Amber won anything, or much. Not enough to by her bf a motorcycle, anyway.

i reported dani's words. it is not on just another board.

It was reported on this one too.

I completely appreciate that many of us miss hours and hours of feeds and make decisions based on whatever amounts WE SEE. Lapses in Live feed posts on all sites means this is the least covered Season in history (imho)

as for speculation...I'd say that Amber seems miserable and beaten while Dani has been gloaty and way way less sulky since she got back.

i wouldnt be surprised if both won the smallest amount of money just for being there.

But who knows.

Puzzled, is that a figure of speech or has Amber said she wants to buy him a motorcyle? I hope not.

Sunshyne, only one can win money. The smallest amount is $1,000. But both could leave with zilch.

Amber prayed to God that she get enough money to get her bf a motorcycle.

I think it is virtually impossible to not win at least $1000 on that show, unless you really are dumb as a rock.

From the few times the show has been on so far, I would say it is one of the easier games out there. Pretty hard to not get the first question right at least.

I swear I thought Danielle made a comment that Amber didn't do well on the POT. Maybe I heard that wrong watching the live feeds or read that wrong on one of the updates. I don't think Amber did well at all and she's just more depressed now than she was before the trip.

swann - last night I heard Jess say something about "Amber screwing up with money twice" and Eric shushed her. So I'm guessing Amber messed up on the show.

There is something to be said about how bad BB has become this summer when the most exciting thing going on is what happened on another show.

Actually What your comments can go both ways. The only reason "I" am watching POT tonight is because Amber and Daniele will be on. The show has slowed down now but it does every year towards the end with more and more HG's gone.
