I chocked in The big Event

Well all as you all know I chocked in The Sunday Mill, but that's not the Worst part, I mean damn The play was so weak by my oppents that I mean damn, I can't believe that I didn't make it deep with-in it, but oh well, I made it far enough, being that almost 7k registered, and I made it to 2k left, I don't think I did all that bad. Now as for my Pro's, and Cons, I would like tips to improving my game, I mean yes I bluffed hard core early on in the tourney, which made me chip leader of my table, but then again, I bluffed like 6 hands in a row which left some ppl wanting to look me up, and then I started getting the all ins right off the hop when the pot was big enough and I just had 1 pair so I chicked out, so you can take that as a pro or a con, now, I slow played way to much which cost me dearly with them hitting there rrr flushs, or there rr straights while I held top 2 pair, and so forth and so on, my overall question is what works for you all when u play in a mtt, and can u plz share it with me, I swear my passive self, wasn't as passive as I thought I'd be, I mean damn, I don't normally push all in with KQ suited, when I'm at like 22k in chips but those where the moves I was making with 22 bb's left, but u live and learn, I got there 2 when I ran into AJ, and my last hand I lost with a bluf, of all in when my, A/3 off ran into A/Q, lol, so plz tell me what works for you all ty

bluff less and wait for the hands later in tournaments. Just my dumb way of doing things.

Wasn't there some successful tournament pro who said that in the first hour of a tournament you only play the top 9 hands? I suppose if I win a sat to the big show I would probably try that, assuming I could get out of the habit of wanting to play everytime I have suited connectors.

That's how I usually am also but I swear I was like a mad man , 4 bet reraiseing blluffing get called, got some bunk in my hand like 10/7 off, lol, flop was all overs, oppent bets, I again reraise he then reraised (and mind you this was between me as, 2nd in chips on my table, and first in chips, lol, and then he rereraised, and I really just pushed, all in, with my all powerful, 10/7, and he folds), so I mean this isn't my normal plays in any event but I had to try it on him, but your right bluffing is how I went up and bluffing is also how I went out

there is no need to be that aggressive in the million, its a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong tourny, just sit back and wait for hands

I knowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, I mean it's like your first big fist fight, and you get the butterflys, so your all pumped up, I was like I got to bluff, reraise, take more pots, see more, and then bluff preflop, to a reraise, just so I can get some, more pots down early on and get a image, As a player that doesn't like to get raised on his BB, SB, or button, ya right, overall dumb plan, hahahahahaha, and it failed, words can-not express it, hahahaha
