Posted by Macubaas: The important thing is that you were ITm and you also made a small profit at the end of the day
MTT have huge variance so it's perfectly normal to have days when you do not win anything or you are breakeven.
Yeah, ITM 15 % is good, but win first place in 6 month or more isn't good , right ? Some of my problem is like noonlion 'fault'. Wrong time ( ? ) to shove or had poor stake at FT ( many times ). Of course I asked to my self : Why ? but I didn't find good answer yet. Would someone help me ? or....Is it perfectly normal, still ????

have mentioned it before,,,why not be more patient and let some dudes get knoecked out...in the meanwhile u can hit A-A,A-K or other nice hand or spot toto superaggresive with...and double maybe even triple up,, since ur getting shorter and shorter...
i think diff between 7th and 4rth...must be around 20-30 $ ,,,so worth to wait and be more patient..
if the cards decide u gonna win this tournament,,,u will anyways ,,no mather what u do when realy ,realy shortstacked...
for example ,,i ended 2 times second yesterday in a freeroll at yachting ,both reaching final table as the shortstack...
anyways ,,good luck in future...love to hear people over here win 1rst prizes tho...
i know some brm -members will not agree and say u should always try to win 1rst once u came that far...
but my approach is..be happy with what faith or destiny brings...dont play with fire too much. the moment u register u already playing with fire,risking some money...
