You're right, sometimes you have to win such giveaways to go far and win big money. If you don't take the risk you won't win at poker, you need to accept it and understand that poker works that's how you need to take risks and win even when you're weaker than your opponent, poker luck can do everything for you

I have noticed from my experience that in order to progress in the tournament, it is necessary to win some crazy pots, for example allin with A5 against AK, and if you manage to win that pot, then you have the green light to be able to continue the game
I agree, it’s impossible to win a tournament without betbeats.

I really dont think its "crazy", its just sometimes you need to make an negative EV move to avoid a larger negative EV move in the future.

You do need to win about 4 or 5 big flips to run deep in a tournament. Also important is reading the table, folding even when you want to call or go in etc. you can see some players with crazy sun runs where they seem to hit with each and every combination of cards and hands. I can remember playing one tournament in a MTT and won virtually every hand.

From my experience, I noticed that if you play with junk, sometimes you can get lucky, but in the long run, playing with junk will lead to losses and disappointment :)

I personally feel it when I go far in a tournament.
and a lot goes into winning those -EV pots.
Most of the time we don't have the best hands.
We have to fight and be lucky for sure.

Some lucky showdowns definitely needed when you go deep. I also agree a very little of craziness, like some interesting bluffing and calling spots - but not so many, and if you not get there, let it go easily if it's possible, or in general try to have an ideal pot-size to the hand you 're playing. :)

You have to accept that luck plays a part - and that you sometimes need luck to win a hand. But winning with a bit of luck is no different to winning by having the best hand - there's no 'green light' to help you on your way, though you may feel that it's your lucky night and start to rely on luck, which is a sure way of losing!

While taking calculated risks can spice up tournament play, consistent success requires strategic decision-making. Reliance on wild plays can be risky long-term. Luck plays a role, but skill prevails. For those interested, I found an insightful casino gaming (https://www.nodeposithero.com/casinos/new-funclub-casino/) . Good luck at the tables!

If you have noticed such a pattern, then you should probably use it to your advantage. But I think you should also keep daily statistics to understand that your system is working and giving results.

It's called Luck and probability theory my friend, because even when you have 5% to win it's your 5% damn it.
If AA always won, poker would be boring. 😴🤷🏻‍♀️
