Adam Jasinski thought he had a good chance of exiting the Big Brother house as the ninth-season winner, but didn’t want to get his hopes up too high.
Thanks to some strategic moves he made during the game and his ability convince the jury he deserved to win, the 29-year-old public relations manager from Del Ray Beach, FL shouldn’t have sweat it as he claimed Big Brother 9’s $500,000 prize by a 6 to 1 jury vote over Ryan Quicksall during last night’s live finale broadcast on CBS.
On Monday, Reality TV World spoke briefly Adam with about his various strategies in the competition; how he regrets using the word “retards” while conversing with some other houseguests; why he’s surprised at the attention the “Freudian slip” has garnered; how he may not have carried his former “perfect-match” partner Sheila Kennedy, but did have her back; and what he plans to do with the prize money.
Reality TV World: Were you confident you’d win the jury vote against Ryan? Did you think you’d win by such a large margin?
Adam: Landslide victory, wasn’t it?
Reality TV World: Yeah, was that surprising?
Adam: Not really in a sense. All week long, I was telling Ryan, “Look buddy, I think you’re going to win.” I didn’t want to be overconfident myself. I knew that if I had a chance to speak to the jury that I would win them over. I’m a good speaker in the sense that I can drive a convincing argument. I think I did. I had a gut feeling that I was going to win the show, but I didn’t want to get ahead of myself throughout the week. I hate to be let down.
Reality TV World: So you did have a strategy in approaching the jury when answering their questions and delivering your final statement?
Adam: A complete strategy. I put myself in other people’s shoes. You can tell what they’re going to ask. I knew [James Zinkand] was going to ask me competitive-wise versus Ryan, who won more competitions. In a sense, that question did phase me a little bit because it got me to justify that point to the jury.
I pretty much made one huge end speech, then dished out portions of it throughout the Q&A. Then whatever was left I summed it up in my key points and close it off with a nice little finale.
