If he wanted someone else to win then why would he not give the POV to his closest ally to help her? Cassandra was selfish because it was her only option since Kelsey was playing for the brothers and there was no way they wanted Cass in the f3 over Tim. It was set in stone.
The fact that Tim gave up so easily is such a kick in the teeth to everyone who wanted to be in the final 3 so badly. It's kind of a joke tbh.

It was the brothers Veto though, not his. He can't decide what to do with it.
They had all made a F3 pact and neither the brothers nor Kelsey were going to budge on that based upon how much they insisted they never lied.
I'm as disappointed as anyone else that Tim quit the last HoH comp, but the more I've thought about it, the more I've realised it wasn't going to affect the overall result anyway. Yes he had about twenty more minutes on Kelsey to complete the last question, but if she could waste so much time just needing to switch two of the dice around when she'd studied, he could definitely have taken longer needing to rearrange
all of the dice when he didn't have a clue what he was doing. I also doubt he'd have beaten Phil in part three anyway.
It was all over when he lost part one, but even then...against Kelsey in part three? It just wasn't happening. The lesson here is that you need to study.

Don't buy into that, he was just saying it to save face. He wanted to win just as much as anyone else did and I'm amazed anyone, especially the houseguests, ever bought into it. It was a strategy to make him appear less threatening and it amazingly worked.
If he could have done a good job on Kelsey he'd have managed to persuade her to take him to F2 and he didn't.
What Cass and Tim should have done is tried to persuade the brothers to use the Veto on him and make him the voter by convincing them that Kelsey and Cass were in cahoots and she'd vote him out, so Tim would keep his word and evict Cass. Then when it came down to it break the promise again and send Kelsey out the door.
It's a very long shot but if they could pull off what they did the week previous it would've been worth a shot and I'm sad they didn't think of it.
The bottom line of it is that asking someone to roll over and quit for you like Cass was doing is just silly so late into the game and it's actually disrespectful to herself to try and stick around like that. They should have won the Veto.
