re: Poker & Tournament Mindset
If you look around in this forum, a lot of players have the same problem, even though there are loads of free information about bankroll management and the theory behind it. So as the old saying goes "you can drag the horse to the water hole, but you can not force it to drink".
At the end of the day, you are the best person to answer, what exactly it is, that lures you so much about higher buyin tournaments, that you are unable to apply sound bankroll management. As you describe it, I guess, it could be called a kind of winners tilt, since it seem, that it happen, when you feel the rush after winning a big price.
And in that case maybe part of the solution is to remind yourself, that you did not mainly win the tournament, because you were better than all the other players. Maybe there was a donkey or two, who donated his stack to you, but most of all you won, because you won a bunch of "flips", and usually you even won some of them with the worst hand. Or you coolered someone by having AA, when they had AK etc.
