Hello Guys...I play mostly mtt sng's and some tournies when I have the time...I usually play in the 5.50 to 27.50 sng's whatever my roll is, and when Im deep in a tournament I can never get over the hump. I am pretty patient in the earlier stages or mtt's and sometimes get a nice stack or just try to survive (depending on my cards) but nontheless, I always seem to choke up later in the tournament, For Example: The Other Night I was playing in a later 11.00 tournament on FTP. Only 215 people or so. 3k starting chips. I was patient for the whole 1st hour, only making a coupel good steals and stab at the blinds increaded my roll to 3,400 avg. was about 4100. The 2nd hour I was hanging around 3700 chips until I hit a big rush and got up to like 12k with in 10 mins. Going into the 3rd hour my rush continued until I was at 24k and 2nd in the turnament with 60 players left...it paid 15 places. I then made a HUGE mistake raising with AQo on the button, to the BB who had 16k he than pushed all in pre flop and then I called him likea donk, he of course had AA. Very Next Hand I had KQd, someone went all in preflop with 13k chips I had 16k, I went on TILT and insta called him, he had me dominated with KK. I then was down to 3k and finished the tournament in 45th place, it really buigged me that I played so well, and then liek a donk just wasted my chips. I would be very thankful if someone who is well seasoned could give me some pointers on mtt's and I would even pay them for some strategies, please dont send me a link to a pokerstrategy site because they wont help, I need help from a seasoned mtt player, thank you all for reading this long poast and hope I can find help, GOOD LUCK!!!
