MicroMillions Updates & Tourneys

Been focusing on tournaments and sit & gos past few days. Cash game grinding has been little, but still running +ev. Micro Millions in stars have started and I am playing 'em around the clock. My first tourney was registered $0.11, but not played and was out as there were some personal issues going on in my life right now. Basically I have moved out of the house and staying with my gf and using her Macbook for my daily grinds. Thankfully everything works perfect, my poker tracker has been imported (can't live without it), my HUD display profile and lastly, my steam account gaming lol!

My first four micro millions tourneys were bust out, until this morning I woke up at 5am to play the $5.50 knockout turbo pro special, where you get $50 for knocking out a stars pro. I didn't even sat with any throughout my entire tournament, registered with my free fix (by depositing $30 in stars), knocked out 4 guys and cash out minimum, well about $6.50. My greatest tourney always is cashing out minimum. I never ever got into final tables in tourneys.

Alongside micro millions, I also registered other tourneys, micro 6-max, 90 knockout SNG, $5.50 turbo etc. I did better than my micro millions. I got to 5th place in the micro 90 SNG knockout, which I was pretty happy. When we were down to 5 I had like 3 big blinds, guy from Brazil called me out and say "seriously? with 3 bb? for goodness sake". I went up to double up to about 7 bb, and then dealt AA vs KJ, thought I could verbally screw back the guy because my chips would hv more than him if I won this hand. Board open QT9 giving him a nut straight on the flop and gg.

Earlier I tried some of the Timed tourneys ($1.10 survive for 30 minutes, tourney ends there and you collect prize based on chip count), $3.30 for 15 minutes and not bad. Some quick buck if you survive but you won't go to those final tables and cash big like regular tournaments. I only played two pocket aces in the $3.30 timed tourney and cashed out $11.

Think its time to read up more on tournament plays to improve my game, if there are books anyone could recommend on tourneys would appreciate :) becuz..
