In my  experience the most common situation for breaking reeds is when you
are  playing with a band that's so loud you can't hear yourself.  You may  
try
to blow harder or even worse you may make a mistake that asks a reed to  
play
a note its incapable of.  The reed would rather die than play  that
unreasonable note so it  breaks.
