10. Tony Vlachos (Survivor: Cagayan)

I've always called Tony a "high risk, high reward" player. There are a ton of points in the game where he could have lost, including at the finals, but things worked out for him, some of them within his control, and some of them not. He made big, bold moves and wasn't shy about being all-up-in-your-face about it either. That right there could have lost him the jury vote on most seasons. But some of the stuff he was able to pull off, like keeping Spencer and Tasha around long enough to be useful to his game and then getting them out at the very last chance, finding the Super Idol that Probst admitted he didn't expect anyone to find, and turning the vote on the swing vote and having it pay off, was all top-tier gameplay. He played an amazing strategic game and deserved the win completely, but the nature of that style of play just left way too many spots where he got very lucky it didn't all crumble around him, and his performance this season proves it.
