I made my first money win (finished about 115 out of about 2000) last night on Party 20+2nl event. So far this is my 4th MTT so I'm still fresh meat. The majority of my time is spent on the 50/100nl 6 ring games.
The situation: Blinds are about 400/800 - 500/1000 I have roughly an average stack of about T8000.
Question: Twice UTG I folded descent hands AJ 99 and 77. In middle or late I wouldn't have even given it a second thought. It was around the bubble with some stacks going all-in and about 1/3 preflop raising. I feel like I played weak-tight towards the end of the tourney. I felt if I opened up for a 3xbb raise I would probably have to risk my whole stack. Any comments, flames, suggestion would be really appreciated.
Many Thanks!
