Tom obviously is not; he clearly believes he can get to the final three, otherwise he wouldn't have meekly voted off his only available ally in a 2 vs. 2 final four showdown. Shi Ann clearly does not believe she can take her chances anywhere before the final two.What's less clear, and what's been under discussion, is why Rupert and Jenna would think they're headed for the final four with the only other strong 2-person alliance in the game. Why would RobandAmber entertain that crapshoot at final four, when instead they can go with two individuals and guarantee one of them makes it to the final three? Any strong two-person alliance that makes it to the final four has a huge advantage, so shirking opportunities to break what might be the strongest two-person alliance in the history of the show doesn't make much sense.Anyone other than Amber has likely two guaranteed votes (Lex and Kathy), and the others could easily split, which makes it a tough hole for Rob to dig himself out of. Tom would destroy him (popular with the Chaperas, and also beneficiary of the Mogo Mogo 'hate Rob' vote). Shi Ann would likely beat him (if she makes the final two despite the Pagonging of Mogo Mogo, she'll certainly deserve the million). Rupert would have a good shot (seen as a bit of a buffoon, but nobody really hates him). Jenna would have an OK shot. Amber is the only one where it's chancy... and that's why RobandAmber are such a strong alliance: each of them knows the other is now their best chance at the jury.It's kinda weird that All-Stars has been marked more by bad play than by brilliant play. Every week that RobandAmber is still in the game just marks another week of bad play by everybody else at this point.</blockquote>
