Yeah, and if you can play it for cheap, I like playing other PPs at these levels too. Others may argue. But I don't mind limping to try to hit a set.

and during levels 1-3 you should stick to QQ-AA, AK.
(I include JJ/AQs, but posters here feel that is too loose)

I doubt any winning player on here has ever said playing JJ in level 1-3 is too loose.

Perhaps they are not winning players, but some have infact stated it.

I'm playing the party 33's if it matters...anyways..

My highest percent finish is 1st. Very close behind that though is 6th. To me this indicates that I may being too aggressive, and not patient(sp?) enough when i have a medium chip stack around level 4.

What do yall think about this?

1) Relatively small sample size so it's hard to draw any concrete conclusions.

2) More importantly, without more information, it is completely impossible (for me at least) to form any opinion. The most important being, what is your ROI? Let's say that somehow your aggressive play with six players left allows you to finish 1st 17% of the time or more, my guess is that there's nothing to worry about.

I would not even analyze my finish distribution if I was happy with my ROI.

If you have an ROI of 40% but are concerned about too many 6th place finishes, it would be like Barry Bonds saying, "I hit .380 but I take too many pitches." Just because something can be tracked doesn't mean that it has any great importance IMO.
