I do pretty well in Sit and Go's I meant tourneys with a bunch of people, I don't mind making the money at all, but I would like to have more chips when I do so have a chance to try to get to the final table. Thanks again everyone for the advice, I'm gonna try to implement these strategies when I play again, hopefully this weekend.

Chutups, I am in the same boat. I usually play tight, hardly ever get knocked out early, and make it down toward the end. Placed 3rd and 4th in multi table tourneys the past few days (albeit small # of entrants). But I also find myself short stacked toward the end. My ability to play the short stack has improved, but I need more chips to win a tourney (and keep from a heart attack). Some of the advise here is good. But like any other situation, there is no substitute for experience. Keep playing and dont alter your game completely. Just make small adjustments here and there.
Hey, I should just take my own advise. lol

I agree with this statement. I must also say that winning your first multi-table tourney is the biggest hump to overcome. I think once you win your first you will start winning more here and there. You gotta try and break the ice and it may take some time.

That is so true LMAO!
I can't count the times I'll be shortstacked to mid-stacked, very late in a tourney and be screaming "NO KING NO KING NO KING!" at the top of my lungs at 4am. Mrs. ChipFish is rarely pleased with this.
