Big Brother 13 was the thirteenth season of the American reality television series, Big Brother. It began airing on July 7, 2011, on CBS and Showtime 2, and concluded on September 14, 2011. The format of the program remained largely unchanged from previous seasons: a group of contestants, referred to as HouseGuests, were enclosed in the Big Brother House under the surveillance of cameras and microphones. Each week, the HouseGuests voted to evict one of their own until two HouseGuests remained on finale night. Julie Chen hosted the season premiere, evictions, and the season finale. The HouseGuests were competing to win a $500,000 grand prize with a $50,000 prize offered to the runner up. The season was promoted as "The Summer of Double Trouble".
Four houseguests were playing mancala with a homemade game using jelly beans.
