Default Should a blatant game player win

Absolutely no.....Why.....because we know its a game and the game should be played, but in all walks of life, when you paly a game fair, you should win if you are good enough. When you play it unfair with angles and cheats, you don't deserve to win. GAMERS DONT PLAY THE GAME, THEY PLAY THE PUBLIC.

Not a blatant one IMO.

A very sly crafty one who often fools the public !

Not true IMO.

Playing the game means playing the public like a fiddle without them even knowing.

Sadly for Dexter, there's many who can often see right through him.

In a nutshell: Gina and Dexter do not deserve to win. Gina is revolting and Dexter will forever be associated with the use of recreational Viagra.

The best housemate should win - Dexter is the best housemate.
Stop moralising.

Dexter to win!

There is an old Yorkshire saying......There,s nowt as blind as those what cant see. You simply cant see past Dexter and this hero worship will be hard to swallow when he comes out and releases a book called how to con the public.

I see Dexter for what he is - a great housemate. Stop being so sentimental.

Dexter to win.

How many more times, Dexter fans no more worship Dexter than Sam fans worship him. It is a game show, if I was to sit through 60 days of Sams tame jokes and sexist comments, I would have switched off ages ago, he seems like a nice enough man (yes he is a man), but in terms of bringing something to the show all I can recall is that great chat up line "How's your fanny", jeez and he wonders why he has never had a girlfriend.

And I shall buy two copies....one for me, and one for you!

Of course it would be an utter outrage if an obvious game-player should win a Gameshow. Sampvt!.......

...but of course Sam's still going to win, despite your campaign against him! ..

I imagine most people were too bored by that video to even get through it.

And if you truly think that Sam is not gameplaying for "Fame and Fortune" then I truly applaud your naivety Sampvt!...wish I was so gullible as to believe that any housemate had ever entered the house for any other reason,...then perhaps I too could have a hero that I could truly look up to, instead of settling for the most entertaining! ...[which by no stretch of the imagination is Sleepy-Sam!]

If you really are blind to his game [or any of them ftm?] ...then by all means put many votes his way!...and good luck with that...you might just need it, because there are plenty of us that know that this is a gameshow that is being played by gameplayers, and can see the bigger picture, so this will not be as cut and shut as most people seem to think . Sam hasn't won ..just yet!

A blatant gameplayer should always win.

The more gamey bb becomes, the more likely a gameplayer winning it becomes.

Yes, it is a gameshow tbh. The best winner ever (Aaron ) was also a gameplayer.

Its all well and good seeing it as a personality contest, but it is an entertainment show. Not miss universe or something. If all of the housemates sat being nice to each other all the time, people would complain about how boring it was (hello BB4)

Should someone who does nothing at all win a gameshow....obviously no.

Should someone who is a game player AND entertaining with it win, on a game show/entertainment programme...YES.

Yes, it's a game show. Dexter amazing last night! He left them all speechless. They can't believe he's in the final. They all thought they'd finally got rid of him!

It is so easy to say ok its a game show so a game player should win and to a degree you are all right but there are different degrees of game playing. The Aaron way or the Dexter way. One is clever and done the right and entertaining way, the other is a game built on lies, cheating, subliminal mind games and pure manipulation. I know which one floats my boat.

I was an Aaron fan too, I like the way both of them have played this, it has been in different ways but both for the same goal...and both entertaining.
