First place rolling along playing with 53,000 and all I had to do was just go on vacation, instead I got ****y and my desire to be greedy got the best of me, then BAM, 5 hands later I went bye bye.

Add it to the many more times you may end up having to write about it... hmmmm I feel the same way... Tournament chip leader many times and then instead of just sitting out and cashing in I keep playing and losing then moving table is like a statement to say "I've come to share my chips with this table, don't mind me" lol

Happens, maybe brush up on ICM. Risk to reward equals sometimes a fold.

When I have enough chips I always play like a chicken , I don't have to be the chip leader :) I want to get the ticket , nothing else matters . I have paid the price in satellites for this strategy , cause , with the exception of some sats I know their structure and potential ending blinds , all the others I cannot predict , nevertheless I don't play agressivelly .
As for the tilt part , I know it , when I lose a tournament with a very good buy in because of my mistakes , I am on big tilt , I really want to go to the casino and play (some??all??) my bank roll sometimes , rarelly , but it happens . Thanks god I have disabled casino option from the lobby , hahaha :) . But it's not difficult to bring back this option back to the lobby .

Every poker player's weakness haha. It happens to the best of us.What differentiates a good player from a great player is the ability to control these urges to go wild just because of a small fluke in the system of cards.

If you made the right plays and were ahead when you got it in then that is all you can do. I almost always go for the win and not placement, then again I haven't played in many tournaments with giant money jumps.
