I'm a beginner in poker tournaments, I only play freerolls and low buy-ins, I rarely get to a final table, I always fall first, I can usually pass a bubble, but not the biggest prizes. I would like tips from experienced tournament players

Be patient. Watch the situation. Fold small cards, call pairs and suited connectors such as QT. Don't let yourself be bluffed out when you have a trip. Fold if they are raising too much most of the time means they really have something. Survivethe forst two hours. Build chips. You won't win everytime but sometimes you will get to the fina table.

Why do you think you are eliminated first?
Have you considered this?
In poker, as in life, everything has consequences. If you play too many hands, play with mediocre cards, and take unnecessary risks, it will most likely lead to your elimination in the early stages.

It’s normal when we’re just starting out. Focus more on your studies, and the results will come soon.

A tradução foi incorreta, eu geralmente passo da bolha, recebo algum prêmio, mas dificilmente vou às mesas finais e acredito que deve ter algum motivo pra isso

Focus on patience and fundamentals. Play tight early, learn push-fold ranges for short stacks, and don’t be afraid to apply pressure near the bubble. Final tables come with experience and volume keep learning and reviewing your hands.

Play a lot, but carefully, trying to play an A-game, and work on the game and psychology, do not get hung up on the result, make the best decisions

Study theory; there is a lot of material available now, but practice is the key to success. Play as many tournaments as you can and remember that these limits will be full of circus. Don't pay attention to it; you can't get away from these players at these limits, and raising the stakes and bluffing won't work.
