3. Teeny Chirichillo
Teeny's biggest asset right now is that she is no threat to anyone. Everyone knows she's done nothing to this point in the game. She isn't threatening in any challenges, and nothing has gone her way so far.
She seems to have a decent alliance with Sam and Rachel, and she gets along with Andy, though it seems doubtful she trusts him long-term. Her alliance will most likely push for Genevieve to be the next player sent to the jury, but things never go as easy as that.
She's nice enough and non-threatening enough to be tugged along to the final three. The only way she could possibly win is if she's sitting with Sue and Andy, and even then, her case is paper-thin.
2. Andy Rueda
The longer he remains in the game, the more there is a sneaky suspicion he might win this game. After a disastrous first three days, Andy showed a general cluelessness about the game that is rare in today's players. Sam and Sierra had to carry him through the merge.
Since the merge, he's been playing a shadowy game. He was instrumental in getting Sierra sent to the jury but has been pretty quiet since, as bigger targets and more forceful agendas than his have taken precedence. Still, he hasn't been just floating along, either. He has been building relationships.
However, it seems other players do not respect Andy's game. They seem to think he's still that damaged, clueless player that fell apart for everyone to see on day three. That isn't reality. He's been unassuming and non-threatening, but that doesn't mean he hasn't been playing.
Andy was right to want Genevieve to go before Kyle, even though no one listened. It is probably a good bet Andy isn't done making moves in this game. Who will be his next victim?
1. Rachel LaMont
With seven players still in the game, Rachel LaMont has an idol and an advantage. That is a lot of power this late in the game. While everyone is aware of her Steal-a-Vote advantage, no one knows about her idol. As long as she can keep that a secret and play it when needed, there is little reason for her not to make the final four. Of course, Survivor is seldom that black and white.
If Genevieve is voted out next, she might be seen as the next biggest threat, and even her Steal-a-Vote advantage won't help her if everyone targets her unless she has to use her idol early. She could be a candidate for a brilliant blindside this upcoming vote if anyone was willing to try and could keep her from finding out.
The blindside is her biggest enemy right now. If she makes it to the final three, there is a good chance she will win. Even that isn't a guarantee, though. Just ask Charlie Davis. Still, she hasn't made many missteps to this point, and it would be surprising to see her make one now.
