Default having some trouble in the 50+5

My bankroll is currently 1730$ and I am playing the 30+3 SNG's on party. My system is too work my way up too 2,000$ (my BR requirement for 50+5) and if I fall down too 1750 I fall back too 30+3 and try again. Anyway I lost 5 50+5 SNG's in a row, and I dont think it was all bad luck, wile it was certainly a factor.

I think I was palying too aggresive late and giving the players too much credit, like hes a good player so he will fold 2nd pair here etc... . My friend said I had a case of fancy play syndrome, and I think he is right. for instance let me give you one hand.

its 5 handed and i have 1400 chips in the BB. everyone folds to the SB(3000 chips) who smooth calls the blind. I have 94o and raise it 300 more, trying to steal the blinds. he calls and checks on a board of K83. I move all in for my last 900 into the 1,000 pot. He calls with 98o and i dont hit runner runner 4.

I think I am doing to much of this sort of thing as a result of having 1,000 chips instead of 800. Maybe I just need time to get used to the new strucure. Anyway any tips would be appreciated.

The people in the 1-table tournaments section should give you better answers than here. Might want to try posting there.
