You may have the same problem I use to have. I'd wait too long to become aggressive and blind out not recognizing when it's too late. Read Dan Harrington's 2nd book. It has a chapter about M & Q. "M" is a way to calculate how many rounds you have left. I'll try not to butcher it...For example let's say the blinds are 100-200 and you have 1000 in chips. Your M would be... 1000 / (100+200) = 3.333. This means you have less than 4 orbits before you blind out (red zone). you can't be waiting for premium hands, and when you push... it's gotta be all-in. You need to losen up more when
