[Big Limpin']

It is really very benificial that your 1sts more frequent than 2nds or 3rds. That brings up your return a good amount.

But be concerned that you miss getting there so often (too often). Are you getting lots of 4th and 5th places? Or are alot happening before that?

I suspect (and am just making a guess) that you are sticking your neck out a little far early on, and are getting into way too many big pots at a full-table.

Some you win and have big stacks...and likely these translate into many of your 1st.

Perhaps be more selective early if you seem to be losing alot of these pots though. Other opportunities will come.
