OK, I had a similar problem, but it involved being very short stacked at the final table. I suspect our problems are, tho, quite similar. I went to the WPT BootCamps and asked about this problem, just like you're doing here. Not one of the posters here, told you what the pros told me. They told me and I can't say if this is why you don't make it, but I suspect it is. The reason you don't get farther (assuming your game is good) into the tournament is that, by (in this case) bubble time, you simply don't have enough chips to survive. Why don't you? You're not taking more than you deserve in tems of stealing pots. If you only play your winning hands, you're missing out on opportnitites to bluff and by losing that extra money, you don't have enough chips to make to the bubble and if you do, then when it counts you don't have enough chips to take a big stab at first place, since your stack is quite small. So take stabs at pots in position and when it's beneficial to you to bluff. YES, I know it's taking risks but if you only play the good ones...you'll be too short stacked to get to the money and then too short stacked to win.
