As much as I hate to admit it, good move on Tom's part. If Cirie had of stayed, most likely she would've won. Don't worry guys, she'll be back. She will SO be asked back.

Anyway, Russell is annoying me. Maybe he knews the game from the strategical POV, but what about the social? No sir. He has no knowledge about the social game. Look at Bostin Rob, he played an amazing game in Survivor: All-Stars, but ultimately lost to Amber because he played a sucky social game. Rob has really toned down, I like him now.

Back to the social game, look at Cirie, master of the social game. She knows the game. Although she stunk at the challenges, she was still not eliminated because everyone wanted to keep her around. No matter what, the game will come to you and you'll play it personally. You'll get rid of your enemys first, and keep your friends.

Although you might ask, how would keeping an alliance do a thing? Well, look at Richard, from Survivor Borneo and Tom from Survivor China or look at Tina from Survivor Aussie. They won because their alliance came through for them in the end. Although some alliances crash and burn like the all-female alliance in Survivor Vanuatu or maybe like in Survivor Panama.

In conclusion, although strategy stuff like alliances is nice and will get you far in the game, you have to know the social game. Without knownig how to play the social game, once you're at F.T, you'll be burned because of all those enemys.

Sorry for this long comment. XD
