I've never experienced it , lol . When in the beginning of the tournament I get tired , half asleep . Now when coming to ITM or coming into positions that pay better I lose my sleep and I encourage all further in the game.

Ofc these tourneys are not 60K GTD ones. :) Nowadays I play less tourneys than few years ago and sometimes these lasts too long, but they are usually low buy-in ones, so I dont lose much if I risk much more than I normally do. Plus I wake up 4:20 am at workdays and that takes a lot of energy. But at weekends I'm fresh and dangerous. :D

Being too scared to play 8nl instead of 4nl, im always finding excuses. Even though I have a big edge on most of the players. I always seem to stay at 4nl.

Keeping track/graphs of winnings and losses is my biggest weakness. I have since stopped using graphs to keep track of progress because I always become result oriented and don't make the most optimal decisions, but instead I make decisions that ensure my graph looks pretty.

I DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LOSE MOST OF YOUR STACK, START PLAYING AGGRESSIVE AND GO all in/

On line - patience
Live - distractions stop me watching action - and at my age toilet breaks have to happen when they are needed not when they are scheduled - can't have a bottle with me.

I think I can`t get often late in tourney because I fear to call high blinds with bad hands and like I have often bad hands throughout a period I don`t make enough chips for high blinds. And what I always hate is when other players bluff and I get so easily fearsome. I always loose my hands against bluffers when I don`t hit a good hand.

I can't fold top pair with good kicker or two pairs on draw table in cash. It seems to me that all are bluffing. Much lose at that.

Chasing bad money with good

Take your losses like a man. Know when to call it a day and come back when you are not steaming.

Patience I think. While playing with really tight player I get crazy, the best way is to avoid that is to change table, but if I play against loose player my patience is good and I can wait long time for good hole cards, because I know I will get paid off. To play on more tables is also a think to avoid that problem.

When I let myself get distracted and make split second decisions. When I just focus on the game and take my time I win a lot more and loose a lot less :)

Sometimes the patience, the tiredness of many hours and also not being able to overcome some bad beat

Sometimes I have to leave a tournament with nice course and come back later, which means I have lost a lot.
