Stuck... – Poker World - Offline Poker Review

I've been playing this game for a couple months. Started it to practice for a charity tournament I was in. I've enjoyed it and haven't had to pay for chips yet, but I'm stuck on Brazil. 26K buy-in, have to beat 16 players to advance. I've come in 2nd or 3rd several times, but can't get past it. It's frustrating as heck. I actually "spent" almost 250K chips trying to beat it. If that's the way they get you to buy chips, it ain't happening.
