I have a ridiculous amount of 5th place finishes

[Bigwig]

Especially in the last two weeks.

What, if anything, does this mean?

For one thing, it means we haven't been playing at the same tables, since I have a huge amount as well.

You must be raising ak of diamonds in level two to exactly 129 chips. This is the only thing that could explain this rash of "fif" s that you are suffering from. Plug that leak and the money should start rolling in.

Most likely: Just the stars aligning that way

Less likely, but more discussable/thought provoking: Your "crazy-go-nutz" swich is being flipped ON when the table gets to 5 players, with less regard for blind levels.
5-handed @ 50/100 is obviously to be played much differently from 5-handed 200/400. Not all bubbles are created equal...

I'm not suggesting this is necessarily the case, but its worth posing the question. Do you think this may be *part* of the reason?

I dunno. It might be.

I'm in a constant mental struggle lately.

One half of my brain says I'm not aggressive enough late, or ITM. The other half tells me 'that was a crazy push idiot.'

I'm either just having a bad luck streak, or was a lot more clueless than I thought.

Well, over the past 10 days, I haven't.

I'm not down much. Maybe 8 buy-ins. But Bigwig hates any downswing lasting more than one day.

ditto. I'm currently working on my best ever OOTM streak.

I think my problem may be that I haven't been paying enough attention to blind levels as BL pointed out. Just being patient will probably help my game.

I only have a sample size of about 150 and only over a week and a half but 1st and 5th are my most popular finishes at about 17% each.

ROI= 25%
ITM= 37%
