I can certainly appreciate your point of view on this. One of the surprising "skills" I had to acquire early on was the ability to not care that an evaluator was present. If I started thinking about it, it began to mess with my head in lots of ways.

One dilemma I have not resolved is whether to tell my partner when I notice an evaluator. On the one hand, he may appreciate the heads up so he can be on his toes. On the other hand, it may just tank him (which would probably be a useful learning experience for him in the long run, but would make the game more difficult in the short run).

Anybody have a good answer to this dilemma?
