Message: [QUOTE="miklcct, post: 7222117, member: 1058426"] I started a tournament on time with 100 BB or more. I started playing. I couldn't really win many chips when there were so many people playing aggressively, including shoving, in the very early rounds. Then players started to be eliminated. The blinds went up. My stack level fell from 100 BB to 20 BB or less, and I even had to play tighter. I couldn't keep up with the average stack as well. My stack continued to fall. Sometimes I got lucky and got a really good hand that I could shove and win, but my stack didn't really recover because I fell so far behind. I couldn't afford to wait for a playable hand. Eventually I got blinded out before any hope of money came unless I shove a lot of marginal hand (and got knocked out when I shoved A9 and got called with AQ). How do people actually keep pace with the tournament? [/QUOTE]
