    You went deep in a mtt and busted out at 29, 21, 14, 10, etc? I find myself only saying "f*** you stars".

    I say: "Everyone says play more volume."

    So I do, and I finish 21, 34, 39, 54, etc some more.

    tell yourself that one of these times you run deep you will win that flip or your 75/25 will hold and instead of going out 16th, youll be in a great position to take that bitch down. and one of these times you will hold, and you will take that bitch down.

    seriously though, volume. because you can play your A game and still have it come down to a flip

    This. I truly believe the difference between a 16th or 12th finish and a top three is a coin flip. Between 28 or 34? Two coin flips. So I've learned to be happy that I made it that far and next time, I'll win.

    It helps if I didn't go out on a bad decision. And it also doesn't always work. So I also do the second choice: more volume.
