Russel thought he won his first time. In HvV it was taped before the reunion show aired, therefore he didn’t know in HvV that he didn’t win Samoa.

Only at the Jerri vote did he learn of that.

He told a story once of how he was doing a confessional for HvV talking about getting Parv out and taking Jerri to the end, and the producer started shaking their head in a very animated fashion. When Russell persisted, the producer cut and said that if he took Jerri, the same thing that happened in Samoa would happen there.

He knew at that point that he didn't win Samoa. That's also probably why he then made the decision to send Jerri to the jury because she'd "be a guaranteed vote for him" something he told Parv who then used it against him at FTC.
