    Default Full Flush Tournys

    This happens to me a lot. I buy in and rebuy as soon as I get below 2000 chips because it makes me more comfortable knowing I can take out any player early in the game. But most of the time I don't get very many winning hands before the first break so I usually at about the same chip stack at the break. So I add on and have about 8000 give or take. And most of the time I start catching some good hands so I can reach the money. But most of the time I don't have enough chips to reach 1st place because the blinds are so big. And I don't know what to do about it if there is anything I can do. Some feedback would be great.

    The tactics about rebuying as soon as you drop under is good, and you must always make the Add-on. So, you are doing that part right. In tourneys with many players, you simply have to take chances, and you have to try and steal a lot of blinds. Just waiting for the good hands will not take you there. If you take chances you succeed once in a while, and there'll be tourneys where you'll have enough chips to "play" poker on the later levels. That's how I see it. I don't know aobut the other players in here, but I don't get enough monsters to just wait for the good hands

    Online MTT's are structured to cause half of the players to get busted every hour or so. If you are an above average tourney player in a tourney with 1000 players, you may be 1/600 to make first place. So don't be surprised when it takes you 600 tournaments to get a first place finish. It's really fucking hard.

    The best advice I can give is to not play tight when your on the bubble which is often a tendency of players who cash a lot but do not go deep very often. If you have 10-20 bbs when your getting close to the money you need to play it like you would if you were already in the money. Towards the bubble a lot of players do tend to tighten up which gives you a great chance to gain a lot of chips if you are aggressive and put your opponents in difficult spots.

    I think how tight you play on the bubble will mostly depend on your stack, and the stacks of those left in the pot. If I'm the table biggie with 80bb+, I'll be opening a lot more hands at bubble than if I have 20bb with bigger stacks behind me. I understand your point here, the bubble is an excellent opportunity to steal and resteal because lots of people tighten up too much, but at the same time the bubble is also an excellent time to undo many hours of grinding with one crazy play. Just remember that the smaller your stack, the less fold equity you have.
