YES a long tournament can be mentally tiring !
If you are skilled enough to make it past the 2nd break for sure .
However jumping to a cash table soon after to continue a roll is not a great idea.
Taking a break would be advice. There will always be another game another day .
If you are scared of cash tables don't be it is where you can really get the true skills learned to use in the bigger tournaments.
Maybe starting at very low tables or low Sit n GO - Everyone is different though .
Sounds like you were playing more for a luck streak then a true building streak .
That in itself can not be good especially after a tournament. Each game / players and styles are different at every individual table .
Better luck next time -
