Not a lot, but I do reach a few now and then. I seem to be my own worst enemy when I start getting close. Sometimes I have to remember usually the better players are waiting on me to misplay my hand and slow down. Same thing when I do get to the final table, I tend to overplay my hands a lot.
Ive made it to the final table on many occasions. The problem i always have is whenever i decide to play in a more costly tournament. I never play enough hands and the antes always eat me up smh.
early in career, played too scared and would mincash a ton, but few final tables. learned to take calculated risks early on. fewer cashes, but more final tables and more $$$ would rather win one outright than min-cash a bunch.
