Default Re: MTT January mistakes: Post your 3 biggest ones.

Mistakes:

1. I never play more than 3 at once, but I have a tendency, when I get a big stack or get deep in one tourney, to get too flippant about my other 1 or 2 tourneys. I don't think the solution is to play one at a time. Instead, I just need to buckle down in all of my tourneys.

2. I get too loose when my stack size reaches 10 BBs. Although I may, at times, need to go into push or fold mode, I need to stop just pushing the first ace I get and pay more attention to the other players at the table, position with regard to money, escalation of payouts, etc.

3. I should not start any tourney that I am not willing to grind out to the finish. A good example is the 8:15 $3 rebuy on Stars. Around midnight, I tend to get very impatient b/c of the reality that you just don't make much money unless you get to the final table.
