The Almost There "curse" happens with extremely social players (aside from Fairplay who was voted out by Lil just due to her dislike of him) that are also strategic players/psychical players that have the high chance to win the FTC: Rudy on Borneo, Kathy on Marquesas, Jan on Thailand, Rob Ces. on Amazon, Fairplay... he was a great player but his chances of winning against Lil or Sandra were pretty small, Denise on China, Tina on BvsW, Keith on SJDS... and we go on and on, is a great theory of a curse, because the returnees from those listed (Rudy, Rob, Kathy, Fairplay, Yau-Man) ranked way worse on their next seasons.

Russell suffered the same faith after being runner-up and 2nd runner-up, he ended 18th on RI meanwhile he cried because a bunch of newbies taked him down and he losed the duel. Also, Russell's strategy I repeat is the great on gameplay, but being the: "Strategic Bully" doesn't grants you too much chances, imagine if Colton got to the FTC of One World (thanks God it wasn't like that)...
