Um. Did you forget what game we play for a living (or for hobby, but still)?

Of course if we win something it prevents someone else from winning. WE'RE TAKING THEIR MONEY.

key words "WE", "WE" and "we're". not once did you say "I". He asked if it was crossing the line, i just pointed out that it was.

If Phil Ivey was a good friend of mine, would it be unfair for him to finish a final table for me that you were at? Would it be wrong? I'm not taking 1st away from you on my own abilities, he is.

edit: FWIW, i have been too tired to keep playing and had someone finish a tourny for me. Not that it matters, but they were a lesser player in ability (and it was only an hour into the tourny, $3 sat rebuy). It really doesnt matter if they were better or worse than me, it's still not fair to others (and i'm sure against any terms and conditions of the site).
