Survivor

I hadn't watched an episode of Survivor since Roger Sexton, a family friend from Valencia, was on the show a few seasons back until watching the season finale of Survivor Fiji last night. I'm glad I did, because itt was quite interesting.

Dreamz put himself in quite the predicament. Should he keep his promise to Yau Man, risking being eliminated? Or, should he guarantee a spot into the final round? At tribal council, Dreamz was torn. He wanted to follow through and give Yau Man immunity, but he didn't want to be eliminated as a result. It is a valid dilemma, but Dreamz clearly made the wrong decision.

Dreamz did not consider the probability of winning if he were to go against the agreement he had made with Yau Man in an earlier episode. Jeff Probst asked Earl at the final tribal council what he would do in Dreamz's situation. Earl's response was simple: "I wouldn't be in this situation." However, Dreamz put himself into this situation and his decision directly influenced the outcome of the game.

If he were to have met with his side of the bargain, Earl & Cassandra would have likely voted for Dreamz and Deamz and Yau Man for Cassandra/Earl. If Dreamz beat Cassandra in the tie breaker, he probably would earned a few sympathy votes and had a chance at winning. However, he did not think of his implied odds and was more concerned in being in the final three, than an actual chance of winning. Who did he think would vote for him? GG, Dreamz!

Instead, Earl "Kansas City, Kansas" Cole back-doored a million dollars and Dreamz is left wondering how he is going to afford the taxes on a new truck.
