Up $100 with first Tournament placement

So far I have been playing $200 NL on AP and I am up $100 with my first Tournament placement today, 3rd of 27 in a $10+1. I do enjoy the MTT tournaments they are filled with poor players the only thing I don't enjoy is when we are down to the final 3 the blinds are 600/1200 and I have 8000 it makes it hard to play cards instead of pushing all-in.
