So, HU in 4-max quintuple shootout in the 3rd round (already ITM) and that s**t comes out Belive me or not, but I have very high % of ITMs in that tournament but never higher than 17 place (and for places 5-16 is the 2nd level of payouts...) and I end up with suckouts like this one. Well, usually worse, this was "only" 68-32, more of them are closer to 80-20.
Sooner or later I'll win it, perhaps today in ~4h, when I'll play in another one

Sngs or mtts are simply not my game, of course you have good chances in a mtt to win a hand with AJ but on cash games ou should play that hand very different...
Plus as you said there is the problem that you can always get a suckout and be eliminated with a very small prize after you invested so much time in playing.
Still there are people that live out of online mtt, so you really need to have patience
