I busted 6th where five get paid in a tournament. I was a chip leader for most of the tournament with 10x the nearest player for most of it. I lost most of the all ins where I had the equity edge to start with or got sucked out (losing to back door flush when I flopped trips and bet 3/4 each street). The last hand, I jammed KKs into villain who had beaten me five times before with marginal holds pre-flop and he turns over AJ. The ace comes out on the flop and I bust from the bubble. How do I avoid the situation again? A lot of it was bad luck and up until then, I became chip leader through balanced and exploitative play.
