One of the best decisions a player can make inside the Big Brother game is to make a secret alliance with one other person who they trust and confide in completely. On Big Brother 3 Daniele and Jason had the most successful secret alliance. They were able to work together without anyone suspecting that they were aligned. On Big Brother 4 Jun and Allison made a secret alliance after they both figured out they were both floating between the two sides of the house. In both examples each player put a lot of trust in the other player to help further them in the game. Daniele and Jason managed to get to the final three together, while Allison and Jun made it to the final two.

This season, for the most part the alliances in the house are all well-known. Keesha Smith blurted out to the whole house that she has an alliance with Libra Thompson, April Dowling, and Bryan Ollie. Jessie Godderz made it obvious he was aligned with Angie Swindell when he didn’t nominate her for eviction. Memphis Garrett and Michelle Costa have made their four person alliance known just by hanging out with Jessie and Angie for the better part of each day in the house. Keesha and Renny Martyn made their pairing obvious just by Renny sleeping inside the HoH room during Keesha’s HoH reign. Ollie and April made their alliance obvious by having an open showmance.

All these out in the open alliances makes them easy targets for the rest of the houseguests. However, there seems to be a secret alliance that is in the midst of forming.

Dan Gheesling has been smoothing his way into the good graces of the rest of the houseguests. He’s talked about his girlfriend, engagement rings, and has even formed a Swim Club at the Big Brother pool. All strategic When Keesha and Renny decided to sleep together in the head of household room Dan jumped at the opportunity to sleep on Keesha’s water bed next to Libra.

Each night this week Dan and Libra have talked in bed about non-gaming topics until last night when Libra began to question whether or not Dan was being truthful to the 7-person alliance in the house. Dan reaffirmed his position. He is being truthful and trustworthy to the alliance. They then began a trip down memory lane by bringing up all former successful secret alliances. Libra said that the most successful secret alliances are Guy/Girl alliances. Dan upped her up one and said that the most successful secret alliances are the unexpectant ones. Libra then said that Danielle (Big Brother 3), a married mother, had Jason (Big Brother 3), the christian photographer in her secret alliance and they went far. Dan asked if Jason was Catholic and they both giggled.

Could this be the beginning of a secret alliance? Time will tell!
