I think a common mistake made by a lot of players is they're not playing to win.
Everyone says they're playing to win, but I notice a lot of time, players are willing to blind out to secure a min cash.

In the long-term you'll have a lot more deeper runs if you play to win, and go for it.
I'm not saying take risks, but still continue to play hands to the best of your ability, and don't allow yourself to be pushed around on the bubble.
Make smart plays. We're not trying to double up our money, the real money is always top 3 in tournaments, and your goal should be top 3 or better.

Any thoughts? Do you always play to win or do you play it safe to secure the bag?
