jervy daño is a morena househelper from cebu. she is a survivor in her own right, working at such an early stage and in pursuing her dream to enter showbusiness. she is definitely a strong woman with an interesting character. she is very loveable and entertaining. with all this into consideration, why did she lost in survivor philippines?
first, patani joined the game not to win the game but for exposure. as she has said before, she has always wanted to enter showbusiness and she saw survivor as a good venue for her to be discovered. she has showcased her talents all through out the show: hosting, singing, dancing and acting. joining the show for a different reason might have been a major reason why the tribe voted her off.
second, she did not impress the tribe in the challenges. as gigit has commented, she is the weakest link in the tribe so if they want to win the next challenges, they should vote her off. jace even commented that "making them laugh at the bonfire was the best thing that she did in the island so far." proving your worth in survivor is a must, but not a sure thing to keep you safe. but for me, she was impressive in the thai pillow challenge, challenging the naak girls everytime. naak tribe also did not choose her in the eating challenge, which means naak knows what she is capable of doing. but the tribe is not seeing this, based on the confessionals shown in the show.
third, she is not a strategic player. she has not fully committed to the girls alliance. she was shown laughing at how people at jarakay were scrambling to get alliances before the tribal council. she did not make any move to make her safe. if you want to win survivor, you must have a good strategy in mind. i think she did not come to the game prepared and she was not ready to play this complex game of survival.
lastly, she has said so many times that it is okay for her to go home anytime. when vern asked her in the beach if she still wants to stay in the island, she cannot give a straight answer. she also said this during tribal council, its okay if she was voted off. if i were her tribemate, why would i bother to think of voting anyone else if there is someone that i can vote out and its okay for her? it was definitely a no brainer.
if i would single out a reason or two on why she lost, it would definitely be lack of strategy and willingness to go. for the three weeks that the people has been watching her, she has undoubtedly become the most popular cast away. nothing is lost for her, this is just the beginning. with the exposure she got and her huge fan base, she can definitely make it big. but how long would her fame last? that is up to her, because show business is definitely like survivor, you should fight to stay in the business and survive all the odds.

i think had it not been a double elimination, patani could have stayed a little longer. patani's role is this: THE PAWN. she clearly has no alliance, but the girl alliance needed her for an additional vote. during the double elimination, it was obvious that there was no time for any one of them to strategize and this was evident with their votes. it showed no unity. it was all over the place.
therefore, given the chance, given that there was no double elimination, patani should have continued playing as the pawn and that will bring her further into the game... at least until the merge, maybe...
