lol , well youre right i shouldnt "blame" my partner, but its hard not to "notice" when you draw someone that doesnt play and was talked into the tourney cause we needed one more person. I approach it wanting to win the tourney , not the money . (kinda hard to get all bothered over $10) So its not costing me much at all, just hasnt gone my way yet. I guess i should have clarified that i was talkin bout cash tourneys with friends at my house, not true cash games.
