I've made few fts this week, all ended up in 6th, 4th...3rd...never make the champion..all comes down to short stack being busted by bad beats...

Any tips to be more aggressive and accumulate chips?

What I meant the more important is mid stage? At what point to start 3betting more check raise with what kind of stack..20bb? 30bb+?

You've final tabled three times this week and you're still complaining? Jesus. If you want to be more aggressive, try pressing raise randomly when you would press something else otherwise. It works sometimes!

I wouldn’t change too much. You can’t win every tournament you play..

Abuse short stacks on the bubble, ez game.

The questions you ask: At what point to start 3betting more check raise with what kind of stack..20bb? 30bb+? Those are all good questions, but will not really provide an answer to your question. You provided no context to your 3 FTs.

Having more chips is good, getting lucky is better. Even skilled players need a lot of luck to come out on top in any single tournament, even after making a FT where stacks are short and it's about winning flips. (If you gii for 20BB KK vs AQs, that is not a flip per se, but what is a flip is whether you have the KK or the AQs, since both are clear shoves.)

If you said you'd played 1000 180-man SnG, cashed 150 times, made 50 FT, and had no 1st, we'd have some data to work with.

Start 3 bet shoving at 20-30BB against other 20BB+ stacks.

either get it in with you have 20%-40% chance of winning a 50BB pot or 50% chance of winning a a 20BB pot.
id prefer the 50BB pot over the 20BB pot.

Obviously the big money is at top 2 place. I want to maximize winning by spending so many hours...

I was playing $1.5 rebuyaddon tourney was down nearly to FT, I was in utg+1 with AKo, utg shove I shove bb called with AQ

KT vs AK vs AQ
KT ****ing held with trip tens, and bb with AQ two pair

I was ****ing tilting so close to ft if i win that I will have more than 30bb

If that situation tilted you, tournies probably aren't for you.

tournies aint good for him since hes not good enough to finish first.
stu unger won tournies cause he was good at poker.

So close yet so far, its mentally challenging to grind at least 20 mtts per day. I'm not sure how tonka n how many he plays per day

Online cash game has no leverage, its plo era. That's only mtt that can make you living

whats your average buyin on 888 poker? ive seen you play $55 and $1 tournies. do you play $5 sats into the $55?

$0.5 to $8.8 to $55 monsoon
Best score so far was cashing $185 from $0.5 towards Sunday mega deep

I have around $100, grinding $0.5 to 1.5

can you earn a living playing 0.5-1.5?

no he can't because online poker is dead

It's a gambling game; it's a mind game; it's a card game that we play with our hands. You gotta find that middle ground where you're consistently getting into profitable situations and consistently avoiding unprofitable situations, all while maintaining a sound mind.

Mid stake, after exchange rate yes it can. $usd 1k is around 4k here

all poker players need to strive to move up in stakes as life expenses will eventually out run you and leave you broke. unless you are playing high enough to put away substantial money for investments.
we do that by not only learning more, but also by eliminating our bad habits in the game and in life which can affect your game or bankroll.
if you live day to day you are toast.
