Survivor Cagayan: Why Tony blitzed The Horse

So!... Spencer powers on and Tony's secured his place in the final three, despite his panic stricken meltdown during the Immunity Challenge against Spenceroo who was incredible yet again.

It was fascinating to see how things came down to Brains vs Brawn. Spencer was so cool, calm and collected as he cleverly wangled the puzzle into the place - such a strong contrast to Tony who shoved the pieces around in a frenzy of paranoia without any result.

And then he delivered his most surprising vote of the season by getting rid of The Horse. #NeighYay!

Of course I'm thrilled that he did because I want Trish gone but it was a bizarre turn of events because of how close they've been since the start. His decision suggests that his alliance with Woo has always been stronger than meets the eye.

Also, by getting rid of her, he's basically guaranteed himself her vote on the jury. Who else will she vote for?? She's never been close with Woo, she's always been Spencer's enemy and we know how much she loathes Kass the Pig. Her zap sign at Tribal captured everything that's so awful about her.

The Horse has no choice but to vote for Tony, even though she was "fuming" with him for turning on her. As you'll see in her Ponderosa vid, the jury convinces her that Tony backstabbed her - and they rub it in.

Sarah says that she could tell from his body language at Tribal and The Horse believes it. She also believes it's because Tony sees her as a such a social threat, which will win him major plus points.

She has a rant about him with neighs of laughter in between so she's clearly forgiven him already because she gets so attached, like she did with LJ, whose greasy hair has become an increasing problem on the jury, brrrr.

Ultimately Tony's secured himself one definite vote, which he's seriously gonna need against both Woo and Spencer. He doesn't stand a chance against Spencer for the win obviously but if he's up against Woo, he does.

It will all come down to how bitter - or not - the jury members are towards him. If they see his game as pure strategy they'll give him the win but if they take him personally they won't and they'll give their vote to Woo even though he hasn't done a thing to deserve it.

Bring on the finale and may Spencer win! If he doesn't then the million has to go Tony.

Thanks dezicles. It would defs be first prize to have them both in the final to hear both of their statements to the jury.

Hopefully the jury will come down on Kass with great vengeance and furious anger.
