Hey everybody, long time no post....sorry. I feel like the prodigal CC member.
Anyway, I am getting totally frustrated. I used to play almost exclusively on bodog and enjoyed my fair share of tournament wins and final tables, but I switched to Carbon when Bodog went anonymous. Since switching I have become the King of the Mincash.
For example, today in the Poker Maximus mini Main Event...$!! buyin, 4800+ players, 570 paid. The first two hours I was as high as 5th place and no lower than 40th and then, no matter what, I could not grow my stack past $40K. I cashed in 400th place for $23.50 in an A ten suited all in from mid position to lose to AJ in the BB. I suppose I could have waited a bit longer but I was down to $20K or so and the blinds were $800-$1600. But that is just todays story. I am continually cashing for 2-3x my entry fee and not making the final table.
I know my late game needs some work, but I am beginning to worry a little that maybe the competition is too good once I get deep. Anyway, any suggestions on how to improve my late game would be appreciated.
Thanks,
FITEMAN
