Okay, so it sounds like they will be blindsided. With the show winding down they really should be running through all of the "what ifs" and that includes double evictions.

I still think they need to go ahead and vote out Jess and hope they can get HOH over Eric -- the odds appear to be in their favor (D&D that is).

I'm not 100% convinced it is in Dani & Dick's best interest to vote out Jess. If Eric calls out Dick in the way Dick calls out all, then Jameka & Zach may see that there is no reason to trust what they say and then it will be 3 vs 2.

Julie said that the hgs will be told only 1 hour before the Live Show about the Double Eviction. So they do get some time to think about it but will be too scared to get Jessica out first under those conditions.

I just hope they don't make any useless deal with Jameka, then even if they play it "clean" it will look like they were playing it "dirty" to J/E when Jameka will tell Jessica what was up when she says goodbye to her.

If the HGs are told one hour before the live show, then D/D may just backtrack and evict Jameka although she can't play in the HOH competition. And if they do evict Jessica, Eric isn't going to have time to get a good head of steam rolling. I have this theory that D/D think Eric will get all messed up when Dani held on when Nick left. What makes them think Eric won't be able to function during HOH? It sounds like it will be Q&A on things in the house and Eric does much better with those then either D or D. I'd like to see Dick and Eric as F2.

When did she say this? All she said on the last live show was:

"Next Thursday at 8:00, we will have a shocker for the houseguests. They won't know it but by the end of the hour, two of them will be evicted. It's a double live eviction."

Oh dear, maybe my hearing is really that bad...

Okay, they won't be told before the show... but do you think they couldn't figure out something is up when they'll be asked to cast the vote this early in the show?

I just read what happened last year with this exact same situation (Double eviction in one show) and there was plenty of time for Janelle and Will to do some quick strategy talk... it will be fun to see what Daniele will do...

If Dick doesn't get a chance to talk to Daniele, he will be flustered on who to vote out and what if the AP vote backfires? If Eric MUST vote out Jess and only one of D/D vote Jess out...oops..huge backfire on this silly new twist.

If they tell the one hour before the show, D/D will have plenty of time to come to a decision. Is that how long they all have to pack?

Dick and Daniele`s best chance is to vote out Jess. If Jess stayed and won HOH she is 100% going to nom Dick and Daniele. Eric will too.

Jess will be voted out Thursday.
HOH will be Dick and Dani vs Eric. 66% chance of a Donato win.
Eric or Jameka voted out.

Final 4 is Zack, Dick, Dani and either Eric or Jameka. 75% chance the Donatos and Zack are safe.

Final 3 should be Zack, Dick and Daniele. Once again 66% chance at a Donato win.

There is at minimum a 66% chance at a Dick and Daniele final 2. They have a much better chance than that when you consider past performances of Zack and Eric in competitions.

A large framed woman is never going to be able to beat a tiny boned barely 100lb woman in any kind of endurance battle.

That's not true at all. Unless the "small framed barely 100 lb woman" has some muscles, endurance is harder for women who are not conditioned. That can be said of medium/large framed women as well. Endurance isn't about size or weight (although an obese person will definitely have a problem), it's 1/3 physical and 2/3 mental. JMO mind you.

I see Eric winning HOH this Thursday. I remember what he said when he won the first HOH (which he did and gave it to Kail instead). I think he's thrown a couple of those Q&A comps. If it's a physical competition, I don't know if I see him winning that one.

Okay, we've seen what happens if D/D win HOH (with Jessica gone), Jameka and Eric up, Zach wins POV (physical) and leaves nominations as they are. Eric or Jameka is gone.

So let's see the other scenario, here we have D/D and Eric playing for HOH. It will be a Q&A comp and Eric is pretty good at it. Eric wins and nominates D/D. Veto competition being physical Zach wins removes one of the Donatos and Eric replaces with Jameka.
Zach and one of the Donato vote both to evict Jameka. (Eric doesn't need to break the tie).

So even with Eric winning HOH Jameka will be gone... only thanks to Zach. I don't think Eric could win over Zach to his side on time.

I think D/D would be smart to evict Jameka this week. She is most likely the only HG Danielle could not win against in the F2. Neither D/D or Zach want to be next the her in the end.

If D/D stayed true to their alliance for just one more week then in the event Eric or Jessica get HOH Zach would be their target for trying to evict Jess. If they get HOH then they can proceed with whatever strategy they choose. I know that Jess does not trust them, but I see Zach higher on her radar than D/D.

This elimates the Jameka threat and gives Jess and Eric a sense of loyalty for the second eviction.

In the end of it all, I do not think Dani has a chance against anyone. Even her dad might win over her. I know I would vote for him before I voted for her. That is just my opinion though. I wish they would get rid of Jameka and keep Jess cause Jameka has really not even played the game. That is why I couldn't vote for her to win the money.

I think anyone's chances would be as good against Eric as against Dick. Although all jury members have a distaste and probable dislike of Dick, more jury members feel personally betrayed by Eric.

If, as it appears, Jess is evicted on Thursday, I just hope Dani is along for the ride to sequester.

Queenfish, we know everything that Dani has done in the game, but remember the jury largely doesn't. Unless something changes, Dani probably beats everyone (although Kali thinks she could lose to Eric-I tend to disagree). But this jury more likely will not vote FOR someone more than they'll vote AGAINST the other person....

Last year, the fellow houseguests packed for them after they left and put their stuff in the storage room. At least that is what I remember.

They will be very busy after the early eviciton. Yes, they did find time to talk last year, but it was very hurried. No time for long stategy sessions.

I think they may make a big mistake if they count on Eric not being able to function. Eric already suspects that Jessica is going home. He is not going to be surprised, he is going to be mad.

I could see him really going after the HOH knowing that America will not be able to choose who he nominates. I could see him putting up Dick and Danielle and if one of them get POV and use it, he can put up Zach. And if I am not mistaken, I think I heard that after the 12th, he is free of AP.

I think Jameka would vote out Dick or Danielle. So it would be a tie and Eric could break it. Without AP to interfer, he would have a chance for revenge.

wow... the second of this double eviction will be the first time Eric (if he's not nommed) will be able to choose for himself who to evict....

Allie,

that's a third scenario quite possible. However, POV comp is quite physical and Jameka may not do good and Zach has more chance to win it.

Which brings me back to scenario # 2 above.

But let's see a 4th scenario:

Daniele throws it to Dick, he nominates Eric and Jameka. Eric wins POV and removes himself and Zach goes up... Mmm, Eric votes to evict Zach and Daniele to evict Jameka. Dick breaks the tie and Jameka is gone. (Mmm pretty similar to scenario No 1, unless Eric is on the block then Daniele would have him gone).

Final HOH...does Zach have a chance? I just think the DD's will be a boring final 2. I'd like to see just a little more pouting and shouting:-), lol.
