From you description it sounds like you played to finish in the money and not win, and so you shouldn't complain. Letting yourself get blinded off into the money is not something one who aims for first does. You still make money, but spot some weak players and use your position to squeeze some chips out of them.

Since I wasnt there to see every hand I tend to disagree with this thought process. *hint hint*.

With these weaker players it often does come down to showing the best hand at the river. They dont lay down. Ask DN. Ask Annie, etc. Long time wsop pros that have gotten busted out trying to run over weakies.

Also one of the things that often deos happen to "blind you off" is POSITION. Maybe we cant come in with a raise because we have EP with large stacks in the Blinds that dont fold often enuf, or LP and we're already facing a raise. These things reflect "Gap concepts" but also the "other players".

Just a thought.
