Ok,my problem is,when I play on mtt tournament,I can go very well ITM,but then nothing. I can't play with over 100k chips... I don't know why I'm a little scared when i see 100k chips then go to 80k or something like this from only one hand.

When the blinds are still small or when you get more than 50 BB's, that's a normal feeling. And, with that, being re-seated in a table with people with similar stacks, you tend to only play bigger pots, or to see them grow much more than in other tables from the same tourney. The secret here is to tighten up the game. If you were 1st among a 200 field and you had more chips than all other 8 sitted at your table, you would try to eliminate them as fast as possible. Being re-seated with opponents with similar stacks, the best you have to do is not to stress, not to panic. Many will try to get chips from you, let the game roll, you know there's a lot of people still in the tourney, behind you in the rank, that in normal conditions will have to leave earlier than you, so you will get an even better prize although already ITM. Don't accelerate things, let them flow, don't mind if you see others playing more than you. It's easier to write it than to do it, but i think the solution passes through here. GL!
