I have just posted 2 tourney hand histories on pokerxfactor. They seem to represent the story of my poker life. I chip up fairly well in the early to mid stages and then my stack just seems to dwindle away in relation to the blinds. I can never seem to build the stack that carries me deep. I get close to the money or just inside the money and I am done.
I cannot figure out if I start playing too tight, too loose, or too what. In recent weeks I have tried to make an effort to concentrate on not just getting into the money but winning the tourney. In these large player field tourneys just getting into the money pays almost nothing. You have to go deep to get any real payoff. This means that sometimes I bust just outside of the money when I could just drift on the bubble. But if I just drift, once the bubble breaks I have no stack to work with.
I know you need to play different games at different stages but I cannot figure out where I am going wrong. Am I playing the wrong game at the wrong times, am I not adjusting at all? What???
Anyway that is my story. If anyone has the time to look these over I would really appreciate it. Individual hands and the overall flow.
