Have a look at maybe what the final table payouts, kick yourself in the head, utter a big D'OH! and then ensure at least two brain cells are functioning and you realise you could make a bigger profit.

In all seriousness, when you're in the money and when all players are relatively deepstacked, this is when the real poker is played. This is the exciting stages of the tournament and one wrong decision or one lucky river card can turn your day around.

Seriously?

Bacon: Now is the time you can pick up more pots. Consider making more moves from the button. Shove with A6s to one limper in the SB if you think they won't call off half their stack.

You don't like the chance that you can win MORE money?

Bacon, if you play online like you do at NPL, you make the money the second you play the first hand ;)

i didn't clearly explain my post. After cashing, i loosen up too much, and think my mid pair is good. So i bennyjam into better hands. What can stop me thinking my hands are better in the cash rather than during the tourney?

Dave, surely u understand i tailor my game depending on the situation. And paradise npl requires my LBW game.

Steve, ak was on toast until he ran like god.

Oh ok. I thought it was like "I've made the cash, I don't care anymore, time to shove on any pair."

Don't loosen up :) Play your normal game.
