$3 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (475th out of 2192 Players)

what a great start to this tournament.  I get AK first two hands...raise 4x and get one caller.  Each time the flop comes 3 babies and the caller shoves.  About 5 hands later I pick up AA UTG and I raise 4x...MP who has me covered shoves and then my computer just flat out dies.  First time my computer has ever died on me like that and it happens not only when i have AA but between the time when i have seen someone shove and when i can call (like a 10 second window at most lol).  awesome.
 
worked my way up to 5k and pick up AA in MP (only time other than when comp crashed)...i raise standard and BB shoves for about 2x my raise...i call and he flips up AK...flop K4K...AA hasn't been the best omen so far to say the least.....time to double or die
 
shove with 87s from SB and BB wakes up with 88....really strange series of events but whatever, been running good so i can't complain

3rd Set of a Hundred MTTs

So, I just finished my 300th tournament last night and I'm going to tally up what went down as I did the first 200.  During this set of 100 I started playing PokerStars along with Full Tilt.  PokerStars' tournament fields are significantly larger than Full Tilt, so my final table's will probably drop.
 
I played 64 tourneys on FTP and 36 on Stars.  I cashed in 40 of the 100 tournaments.  This is actually probably too high.  I need to be taking a few more shots that will bring my cash % down but my final table % up.  I had 5 final tables with two top 3's (no wins this 100 however).
 
I invested $305 into tourneys and cashed for $750 even.  $445 profit.
 
My goal from my last 100 MTTs for this set was to try to play my best game in every tourney.  I think I did this better than I had last 100 but this is an area that takes constant effort for anyone, and I am will continue to focus on this.  My goal for next 100 is to attack the late stages of the tournament better, and not get gun shy.  Last night I really blew a tourney because I didn't shove in a spot I knew I should of and it costed me.

$2 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (10th out of 229 Players)

Blew it.  28k with 600-1200 blinds.  I am in 5th of 10.  Button has bout same as me and raises to 4500 (strangely big but I didn't really know what to make of it) I have JJ in the BB.  Now with the size of his raise i was afraid to raise to like 12k and put nearly half my stack in so I just called (mistake).  Flop is T95 and I check to let him C-bet, he does, I shove, he calls with T9 and thats that.  If i reraise I know he is folding and I have 34k and am in 3rd with 10 to go.  Super Ultra Disapointed.
