Big Brother spoilers ahead: Chuk Anyanwu was evicted from the Big Brother house during Thursday night's live episode of "Big Brother" after Haley Thogmartin won BB Blockbuster and came off the block.
The result answered two of the night's biggest questions: Who went home on "Big Brother" tonight and who won the BB Blockbuster?
Entering Episode 19 of BB28, Haley Thogmartin, Chuk Anyanwu and Barrett Pfeiffer were on the block. Haley earned safety in the BB Blockbuster before houseguests cast their live eviction votes. Chuk was ultimately evicted in a 9-1 vote.
The eviction followed shifting discussions inside the house and the fallout from a fiery Angela-Haley confrontation. Haley spent most of the week as the apparent target, though conversations at times shifted toward Chuk and even Barrett.
The eviction sets the stage for Week 6 and a new Head of Household competition, with the winner expected to be revealed when the live feeds return.

Big Brother spoilers: What happened tonight?
Thursday's "Big Brother" Episode 19 featured the BB Blockbuster competition, the live eviction vote and the departure of Chuk Anyanwu from the "Big Brother" house.
Haley, Chuk and Barrett entered the night on the block. During BB Blockbuster, the nominees competed in "Newton's Apples," a challenge that required players to roll five apples up a ramp and balance them at the top before using stone balls to knock the apples back down. Haley won BB Blockbuster, with Barrett behind, followed by Chuk.
While Haley spent much of the week as the apparent target, house dynamics shifted in the hours leading up to Thursday's episode as several players discussed keeping Haley and targeting Chuk instead. Haley's BB Blockbuster victory opened the door for that scenario, and Chuk was ultimately evicted in an 9-1 vote.
