The Big Brother producers used the Pressure Cooker to decide the latest Power of Veto winner.
Luckily, the Live Feeds were back on, mid-competition. This allows fans to tune in.
Be aware that this article contains many spoilers from Week 10.
The most important spoiler is that Yash is the new Head of Household.
Yash took power the same night that Angela went to jury.
This meant the BB Bribe was in play. Yash could not nominate the icons.
Dee and Devens celebrated being safe.
Yash nominated Drew, Barrett, and Melody. He’s working with Taylor, so they were the only three people left.
Editor note: Yes, we know this isn’t the REAL Pressure Cooker. But that’s what the producers are calling it now.
Pressure Cooker rules on Big Brother
As mentioned above, the six people competing for the Power of Veto were placed in the Pressure Cooker.
The challenge now involves players holding a pole with a handle (some call it a sword). They must keep pressure on a card. If the card drops, that person is out.
The winner is the last person standing.

Drew is the Power of Veto winner. He will now save himself from the block. Taylor will be the replacement nom.
