I won my first sng and posted it.
Since then I took some of the advice and am playin more conservative early, keepin my raises consistent, (etc.). Well atleast im trying to.
Since then ive played 2 sngs, the first one i folded just about every hand, except when i got A5s in the bb, picked up the ace and diamond draw, and lost about 140 on it missin my draw. I picked up some blinds 4 orbits later with AJ. When i was got down to about 6bb's i doubled up with K9 on a coinflip
I stayed at about 2k for a while tryin to steal blinds when possible, a few orbits later i doubled up with K10 in this hand

I tried to sumerize all the pots i didnt think i needed to post, I alsot only posted the major pots and didnt include my preflop play early, I feel I recieved enough input on that from my previous post.

In both these tournaments I was looking very good to make it in the money and collapsed, what am I doin wrong? (Any advice will be apreciated)

Played another, picked up another 4th =(, almost exact same situation
