MTT Inflection Points

Why do I bust out of so many tournaments in the top 3-10% of the field, despite having improved my results substantially? Why, when I surpass that mark, rising to the top two percent, with numerous final tables, do I have no outright victories?

I have numerous leaks in my game obviously.

I believe that I have mastered several early, bubble, and beyond “inflection points”, but a final one or two elude me.

My heads up play has improved, so even if it needs some work in long drawn-out battles, for example, this cannot be my downfall (nor does it occur often enough).

One weakness is not being willing to play pots with big hands late to avoid difficult decisions, and often just taking down a small pot. On the other had, I patched a massive leak that prevented me from being willing to take small edges or gambles before getting to 10xBB– this is primarly what would cause me to bubble in the past,  playing too tight and being ground down.
