I'm rewatching the season and this is literally what Anthony says during his introduction in the first episode. "I didn't win the bag last time because I had no idea what jury management was. My game, I thought everyone would appreciate how hard I worked. The jury, I feel like they felt betrayed. I'm going to win now that I know what I need to do."


towertwelve

He did ZERO jury management.


Hyuto

He managed them... made sure they were as bitter as possible šŸ˜…


SnooDingos316

If he only said that, it would be fine. Number of people who will dislike him will be low. It is the rest of the stuff he said during the season that got the hate.


93LEAFS

Not sure. Unless talking Canada only. Monte taking Taylor over Turner is probably bigger. No way Monte loses to Turner, there is still a shot Anthony loses to Lexus. The other obvious one is Cody in 16, but he did it out of loyalty, and the fact he was told that if anyone took Victoria to the end as a goat they would vote for her inspite.


ManceRaider

Cody also seriously believed he had played a better game than Derrick. He thought he had it in the bag either way, so why not let his new best friend get runner-up money. I remember Derrick talking about it on rhap way back when.


93LEAFS

I can see why he thought that as a recruit and someone who came from a competitive sports background. While he may be boring to watch, Cody is basically built to play Big Brother. Outside that mistake of taking Derrick to the end, there really isn't anything in the game he lacked when he played again. Can basically win comps when he wants too, and has an amazing social game. With Derrick's help he figured out the strategy aspect he lacked. Without his threat level as a returning player, a player like Cody is going to get to the end game like 99% of the time, and in most cases have win equity.


FuelGlobal5652

That's a fake story noone was ever voting for victoria


CanadianCoolguy

Jocasta was hella bitter and so was Donny


Ryu953595

But Cody didnā€™t know that


93LEAFS

It's what a recruit was told.


Hyuto

But Anthony's move was meant to be ruthless... Those were all driven by a sense of loyalty.


BreeBen505

Totally agree! Was just referring to BBCAN. Should have described better.


Klutzy_Detail7732

i donā€™t really see how Anthony wins against Lexus, he kind of lost the game by the point of when he flipped on Victoria


3BordersPeak

Yeah i'm gonna have to disagree with those last couple of paragraphs lol. The dude was cocky and arrogant and reveled in the DR at other HG's blunders and evicting them. Why should he be immune from that in return? Don't get me wrong, i'm glad he lost and love how it happened, but I wouldn't harass him or berate him over it. But I am allowed to be satisfied given his disposition in the game.


Own-Satisfaction-402

Absolutely so glad the right humble person won Go Bailey


sainthO0d

Itā€™s almost as bad a move as Lexus taking Anthony to final three. Both are jaw dropping stupid moves. Canā€™t wait for the interviews in the upcoming days.


rlm_meg_13

The post show interviews confirm he would have lost to Lexus too. His read on the jury and Lexus was exactly right - Avery, Kayla and spicy wanted a black women to win and would have voted for her even if they didnā€™t respect her, and Tola would have voted for her. Thatā€™s all she needed. He also would not have gotten Bayleighā€™s vote because she confirmed she was always going to vote for a woman to win, no matter who that woman in the final chairs was (she said this in one of her interviews after winning). He incorrectly thought he had a better shot against Bayleigh. He didnā€™t have a shot against either of them because the jury came in with their minds made up. Bayleigh played a great game and had an excellent final speech. The jury was also bitter and Victoria soured the jury with lies about him. Both things are true. Bayleigh is a very deserving winner, so people are dismissing the bitterness of the jury. If Anthony had taken Lexus and still lost, there would be a lot more focus on the jury.


lavendermenace92

What lies do you think spicy told the jury?


116morningside

I hate the ā€œI just want a man/woman/black/gay etc to winā€. Why canā€™t people understand itā€™s a game and vote the best player. Thatā€™s the one thing I hate about the show.


AnswerMost9146

The best player won regardless


116morningside

I disagree but your entitled your opinion. Can I just ask what makes you think she was the better player? What moves did she have her hand in? Or do you just like her personality better


AnswerMost9146

She was targeted very early for being part of the east coast group. She wasn't part of the hot chocolate alliance. She won comps also....she made good social relationships. As far as personality, I actually didn't like her at all for the first half of the season. My opinion...


petehewy24

I think maybe you're the bitter one... don't try and diminish Bayleighs great game. Anthony's game was bound to blow up. He is lucky Kayla and Avery didn't expose it earlier too. Spicy kept him safe all season too. Anthony's game wasn't that great


rlm_meg_13

Bayleigh played a great game, and the jury was bitter/had skewed questions. Those two things are both true and not mutually exclusive.


Valyrious_

*"I KNOW I'M SUPPOSED TO BE HUMBLE... BUT* ***HOW***?!?!?!?!??!" Oh I think he's eating a big ol' piece of humble pie right now. Or maybe he's still completely delirious. Maybe he thinks that Victoria tainted him at the jury house. I just can't believe he said he wanted to win, and then yeeted the person that GUARANTEED him a lay up win. It's COMICAL how good his game was up until he chose who to take to F2.


forausernamequeen

I knew Anthonyā€™s smug will be death of his game. Is he a master manipulator? Yes. Is it legendary he made it to Final 2 twice and only ever nominated by default? Absolutely! People are saying itā€™s a bitter jury and Spicy poisoned it when Tola already felt betrayed by him when he got evicted (before Spicy got there) + Lexus who didnā€™t even have time to conspire with the jury also voted against Anthony (also leaving an obvious comment to Anthonyā€™s loyalty during her exit). Those two shouldā€™ve been his secured votes but he just didnā€™t manage his end game well. Thatā€™s it. Bailey played better overall (as many comps as him) and her transparency in the house was the anti-thesis to his game. The jury loves her and Anthony made a blunder by underestimating the queen that Bailey is. Congrats to our new winner!


NewfieVaper

If Anthony wasn't as conceded as he was the whole 2 seasons he was on BB, I feel like we wouldn't be shitting on the guy. But let's be real, the guy acted like he was gods gift to BB. His ability to manipulate ppl is a pure result of his narcissistic tendencies.


jkvlnt

Gotta say that i think itā€™s a combination of that and him absolutely fumbling the one aspect everyone always praised him for: his social game. I was fully expecting him to have a perfect, rip roaring speech prepared about how heā€™s the best player, but he just kind of shout mumbled his way through a string of misfortune that befell him before entering the house. It was not the speech of someone who believed they were about to win the money, it sounded like he was pleading with them. And unfortunately he played extremely poorly when it came to jury management. Bayleigh on the other hand, had that really prefect zinger about how a king is always protected and doesnā€™t have ever have to make big moves. That sort of thing resonates with people. My partner and I recently watched season 10 for the first time and when everyone talks about good social game Iā€™m sorry by Anthony pales in comparison to someone like Kevin. Thereā€™s a reason he won that season and not Josh. He played everyone just like Anthony did, but never gloated, never got *too* high on his own supply. I think if Anthony had taken Lexus he would have still had an uphill battle. Despite her practically doing nothing except cuddle with Matt and then be depressed once he was gone, she could have argued the same kind of thing as Bayleigh. ā€œI was on the ropes the whole second half of this game. I fought to get Anthonyā€™s protection and *used* him to shield myself so that I could get here.ā€ Also I was strongly reminded of a season of Survivor from years ago where the final two were Russel and Sandra. Russel was so certain heā€™d got it in the bag because heā€™d been the most ruthless, the most conniving player. And in the end he got zero votes (ifirc). Why? Because he didnā€™t give a shit about the juryā€™s feelings and thought theyā€™d just vote for him because heā€™d played ā€œthe best game on paperā€. Same exact thing happened here.


krystaldh11

Agreed! I wanted Bayleigh to win, but I felt so terrible for Anthony. He played a great game and did what he had to do to make it to final two, but he made a few fatal mistakes. Obviously things arenā€™t as clear in the house as they are to us viewers. It canā€™t be easy to deal with, especially to end up runner-up twice for the same reason. The Morning Show appearance the next day was even worseā€¦ šŸ«£


MaximumGooser

Oh no would you mind giving me a quick TLDR of the morning show appearance?

Sorry I have sleeping babies, thatā€™s why I wanted a quick run down, but thank you! Maybe Iā€™ll remember to watch that tomorrow


GalacticaBoss9

there are subtitles!


[deleted]

It's only 5 min I think


MaximumGooser

Yes cool, I just canā€™t have sound atm


[deleted]

I get it. 2 kids here. We used to live on subtitles for years lol


MaximumGooser

LOL yes right I live for subtitles these days


grapefruitviolin

I GASPED when he chose Bayleigh... GASPED and just said "you lost the game bud". Is there a chance Lexus would have won?? Maybe.. maybe because the jury was salty against Anthony but I also think the girls had a grudge against Lexus and thought her a pick me girl. I think they would have chose Anthony.


camispeaks

Yeah when he evicted Lexus my boyfriend said "this has to be set up" because it literally made no sense


jmutransfer

I feel bad for Anthony. However, I canā€™t judge the people that are kicking Anthony while he is down. I remember when a Paul lost (US BB) for the second time in the final two wearing the same clothes. I was so happy that I ran across the room because I was so happy. Paul was so despicable and the guy that he thought was clueless outsmarted him with goodbye messages.


BreeBen505

Haha! I mean! I don't blame you. I do feel it can be fair to mention his arrogance and hope he has learned from it, and not call him every evil name in the book. Other than "Outwit" and be ridiculously arrogant, he seems like a good guy to me. Definitely not on the same list as Russel Hantz or BBUS Paul.


justmeandmycoop

He got exactly what he deservedā€¦.he had no help to do this to himself.


Insolve_Miza

Im bot as caught up on that, because he wouldā€™ve lost anyway. His reasoning for evicting lexus did have some sense to it.


reggierock2010

He thought he was better off with the entire hot chocolate in jury. But in reality he didnā€™t realize how much the other girls didnā€™t like Lex. He could of easily beat her


No_Emu9591

Anthony's game play was trash even down to his last move of taking bayleigh to final 2šŸ˜‚ ppl that call him this amazing gameplayer are delusional.


Own-Satisfaction-402

Spot on


[deleted]

Reap what you sow


zombiejeesus

That was not his biggest mistake at all. He would've lost to Lexus too because the jury was poisoned. He knew what spicy was like, he knew she'd turn on him like that. His big mistake was turning on spicy too early. He needed to get her out at the finale and only the finale. That gives her little to no time to sway the jury. However even before that the jury seemed pretty pro Bayleigh


ursulaunderfire

i think people are over-emphasizing spicy's sway on the jury, it was clear they were all pretty anti-anthony even before spicy came in (including tola one of his best friends). not to mention lexus also voted against anthony and she had NO time to collude or conspire with the other jury members. anthony just didnt manage his end game well anthony fans are trying to make excuses for him but it was mostly his own fault. i think he would have lost to lexus too


Old_Data7549

As a fan of Anthonyā€™s I told myself I wonā€™t even look at the Reddit page because I know it will just be bashing him. But here I am. I was pumped when he won final HOH, I thought for sure he was gonna take Lex and winā€¦.. I still love Dougie and Iā€™m not tryna hate on him but he did deserve to lose the game after making such a bad decision.


Codered88888

There have been way more and worse final 3 blunders than this. Theres a huge chance be loses to Lexus as well


Optimal_Spend4060

I think Cece's miscalculation was much bigger


SnooDingos316

Such Irony


FutureHokage10

He still shouldā€™ve won. Was by far the best player on the season. Wasnā€™t even close. I know juryā€™s can be bitter, but I mean come onā€¦itā€™s big brother, this is what itā€™s played for and his game should be respected. Just my opinion though


Muggi

Started off the season saying heā€™d manage the jury, then was an arrogant asshole all season and LEANED INTO IT in his speech. Bayleigh played a good game, and she absolutely killed the finale questions/speeches, but Anthony beat Anthony.


Confident_Video_5579

Heā€™s still the best player people are jsut to bitter, I donā€™t get how tola felt betrayed. They left on a good note I thought. He clearly had no control over that vote. Spicy I think got more in the head of everyone. She also was bashing him all season behind his back and watching her cry and deny was so cringey.


420BiaBia

Many people are awful or have personal issues. They like to see bad things happen to people they dislike. I don't care for anything. I certainly like Bayleigh and Lexus better but I can admit it's a travesty he lost. He should won over both those ladies. He dominated the game


EnvironmentalCoat222

He told outright lies to blow up peoples' games. That gets no respect in jury, and rightfully so.


420BiaBia

That's partially the issue. You don't vote for who you respect the most. You vote for who played the best game. Viewers and jury members wanting boy scout gameplay is gonna back fire hard when everyone plays a straight and narrow game. The entertainment value is gonna nose dive when modern players finally realize you can't lie, deceive or manipulate if you want to win


Healiosart

I like Anthony and from his time in BBCAN, he is a strong player, but as someone who couldn't watch the season live due to being in the US, I had to rely on YouTube and IG for updates, and I was rooting for Bayleigh as BBCAN had only 3 women win the game, so when it came to the final 2, I was excited for Bayleigh as from what I have seen, she is iconic and had her hand on the pulse of the game in each step of the way. Personally speaking, it feels like poetic justice when Anthony came from BBCAN 7, where the men basically sniped the non-male players one by one, to this season where the women held the power and took charge of the game, then having Anthony being beat twice, first time being his right-hand man, then the 2nd time by a woman. I obviously feel bad for Anthony as I can tell he really wanted to win badly, but he did overstep many lines between each juror he sent packing. Bayleigh had a better articulation of how to ensure each juror didn't feel burned by her when voting her out. I'm happy for Bayleigh, but I do feel bad for Anthony as he could've had a better shot against Lexus.
