It's a social game as much as a physical and mental game, and his extreme ego gets in the way of playing his social game well. He could have "pretended" to like the guys, but he didn't even want to bother with that this year, and he does have the skills to make people think he likes them. Being sent to Redemption Island might work in his advantage, he's really good at challenges, and if he can stay till the end, many contestants on the jury, won't feel like he's backstabbed them, so he has a better chance at winning overall.

Everyone already hates him! There will be no more Redemption island after they merge and even if he gets to the finals...you can bet your butt everyone on that jury will hate him and not vote for him....Russell will always be a backstabbing SOB villian LOL he can't change.
