Go for the two people in Naughty house most likely to come after you. I'm not sure what your relationship is with everybody, but I'm confident you're good with Porsche, Russell, and I. That leaves you with Josh, Braden, Dick and Britney.
*Braden hated Carol, so he could easily come after you. Plus he did pretty well in the HoH competition. Downside is that last week he was practically inactive, and I don't think you wanna use your HoH on an inactive. (Even though he's back)
*Britney is Britney. She's kinda a trainwreck. If you put her up, idk what her odds are of staying b/c last week Jason was talking about how people wanted you and Britney up, so keeping her in the game could keep someone that's a bigger target than you in the game. That being said, she also didn't seem to care for you reading viewer's lounge last season.
*Dick was psychotic in your season, and he didn't like you. Not sure if you've patched things up but I don't see him sticking around if he goes up.
*Josh is the wildcard this week I think. If it were me I'd consider putting him up because he's a lot like Cassandra in the sense he's going to try to float in the early going and jump from alliance to alliance down the road, so he might have your back, but for how long? Last season you two were cool in the early going, so if that's back, then it's probably in your best interest to keep him safe.
I'd say your best bet is to feel them all out and see who you think you'd be safest with. If people are still holding grudges from BBR9 then I think Dick and Braden are solid options because they're both kinda UTR right now, and they're both after you. Another option would be to put up a pawn next to Braden/Dick to ensure one of them goes. The problem with that is the best pawn is Josh since he sucks at competitions, and he's likely to throw a fit if he gets nominated. Right now I'd say just get a firm read on everyone and see how you feel, but you need to do what's best for you to ensure you can survive the coming weeks.
