2+2 help ROCKS!

[AJay2000]

I've only posted a few hands over the past couple of days, but I've delved into MTT and SNGs as my main format of play, mostly because I enjoy them more than cash games, but also because I feel that the strategy needed to have an actual chance to 'Win' a tournament appeals to me greatly.
I feel like I've been steadily improving, but a couple of final tables in the past couple of weeks added to more cashes and tenth and eleventh places finishes have really bolstered the confidence I've been growing since studying these forums.
As a result, I just went from T1600 after the first break of the $11 MTT I'm playing in tonight to T15297, employing strategies I've found here that I NEVER considered trying before, mainly pushbotting, trusting my reads and exploiting advantages, and understanding that it takes more than just getting the right cards to start with to win. I currently sit in eight place, but I know now that I have a shot at winning.
Thanks guys, and continual improvement and enjoyment to all that post here.
