I definitely sounds like you need a break.

Take some time -- pull back and do some study.

This hand was played fine as far as I can tell -- as was the 66 hand previously.
Instead of posting these hands all in the same thread though, I suggest that you put each hand separately into the forum "Hand Discussions for Tournaments" that way, more people will see them, and you'll get a wider range of opinions

All the best,

X-r that 66 hand lot bigger (to 600 or so) on flop if you check. Would be fine to lead big (160+) as well. You are in 5way flop with flush and straight draws available. So make them pay to draw.

But break will not solve anything. Evidently I'm not making such bad decisions as you all first thought I did. I'm just seeking a solution. How to be a winning player? Now I got A10 vs A2 and of course 2 came to kick me out of tournament.

So if I take a break while I'm still playing good what will that do for me? I don't think I should be top 10 every time but come on.

A break will give you time to re-establish your positive outlook.

I may be wrong, but from your posts you appear to be in quite a negative space.
You cannot win in this state.

If you are playing MTTs you would normally expect to cash between 25% and 45% of the time.
HOW you bust out is irrelevant.
Just know that you will do so, and just move on.
The times you win, should restore your positive attitude, and it doesn't appear to be doing so.

I say again, post hands individually in the hand discussion forums, and follow the advice of the experts

Play each hand without regard to the past or future -- just that hand.
Establish a guess to opponent's RANGE not a specific hand.
When (or if) you see opponent's actual hand see if it fit s your guess, and if not take notes.

There is so much to learn in poker, and only a small part of it has to do with the cards

All the best,
