This is "game" is for $500,000!!! I would do whatever I could also to try and get to the end and have a chance at that money. Lot's of people play off each other and lie and backstab to win. That's what the show is all about. The only thing that Shelly really does wrong IMO is act like she's all innocent though. I'd respect her more if she at least admitted in DR sessions that she has some guilt over what she is doing but she's trying to win.
It's funny when people say this because getting to the end is one thing, winning  is another and the people you betrayed are in the jury house.
It's not like Shelley respectfully wins anything and made a big game move because she felt there was no other way.

You don't play the loyal friend/mommy card then backstab in a blink of an eye. She should have waited, now most of America hates her and the jury.
Horrible game.

If you go against your alliance that soon, you will not win the BB game. Period.
 I have more respect for a player who can win based on winning challenges when needed, playing a good social game as well as being loyal to their own alliance and then balancing that with holding on to at least some sort of a moral compass while doing enough to advance yourself.
