Re: MTT January mistakes: Post your 3 biggest ones.
Similar to your post about how you lost the 700k, I also had a meltdown about the same time in the tournament. That has led to #1:
1) Recognize better the table dynamics, and the reads players will have on you. A standard blind steal situation is no longer standard if the blinds think you are a total wacko.
2) It's ok to fold your big blind. It's ok. Sorta deep in the stars 150 chief911 raised my bb from the button and I obviously shoved J8o. I had no real read, just that I always assume the button raiser never has a hand. It may indeed have been a good spot, but if it was it was for the wrong reasons.
3) I need to stop talking on AIM, looking at 2+2, and talking to my roomates while 4 tabling 100+ dollar MTTs. Really.
