I cant beat the $215...

[act]

...and i hate it!

I 8-table the $109 with fair sucess: 3000 tournies and a roi of 5.72. I know many 2+2'ers do better and thats why i seek your advice on how to get better.

I take my stabs at the 215 and seem to get burned. After 122 tournies im down 4000 $ of which app 1200 $ is bad luck hu (i ran thru all my all-in hu confrontations and calculated that i lost app 30000 more chips than i was supposed too. Since i figured 1000 t$ was worth 40$ when head up in a 200$ tournament i estimated the bad luck factor of 1200 $). Of course many other kinds of bad luck exist but i think it is fair to say i cannot beat the tournaments.

So what is the problem? Well i seem to lose on certain blind levels. I think maybe im to tight. My stats on the blind levels 50/100, 75/150 and 100/200 are less than impressive to say the least:

50/100:
hands: 27560
t$ won -25261
vol put t$ in the pot 11.68
pf raise %: 9.4

75/150:
hands 14447
t$ won -1446
vol put t$ in the pot 16.07
pf raise %: 13

100/200
hands 18429
t$ won -41302
vol put t$ in the pot 20.39
pf raise %: 16.2

Does this stat strike u as unusual? I think maybe im too tight. How does my stats compare to yours?

Maybe its a litle bit naive to think that my problem can be solved just by looking at stats, but maybe some of u great poker players can guide me in the right direction.

All help appreciated.
