'Boston Rob' Wins 'Survivor: Redemption Island'

NEW YORK (CBS/AP) - "Boston" Rob Mariano is a "Survivor" winner -- on his fourth try.

He received his $1 million check Monday morning.

Rob talks to WBZ-TV's David Wade:

Host Jeff Probst says Boston Rob played a nearly perfect game, the best he's seen in 22 seasons.

Boston Rob admitted he was nervous going into "Survivor: Redemption Island."

But his fellow players didn't know how vulnerable he was in the beginning.

Win or lose, Boston Rob said this would be his last "Survivor."

His wife Amber is a previous million dollar winner.
