Paul Abrahamian

 was the runner-up of Big Brother 18.

He was initially very vocal about getting the returning players out. However, after his ally Jozea was blindsided, he started building trust with people and even worked with the returning players.

He was a competition threat, winning 3 HoHs and 3PoVS thus making him the 7th male houseguests to win 6 competitions. After winning the final hoh, he chose to infamously evict James Huling and take Nicole Franzel to the final 2. However, this move was fatal as Nicole won the season by a vote of 5 to 4, thus leaving Paul as the runner up.

His decision to evict James is considered a huge mistake by both the viewers and the jurors because he could have easily won against James.
