Message: [QUOTE="iwont20, post: 6767020, member: 254263"] It doesn't matter that you have a lot of chips if it's an early stage of a tournament. Play as always, maybe occasionally allowing yourself more than you would allow if you had a stack of an effective stack's size. If it's a middle stage, you obviously can play wider and put pressure on the table, but again, it should not be your main goal. Your main goal is to use your stack advantage for going as deep as possible. That would mean you should rather maintain your stack advantage, than target opponents. Also be mindful of the table too, not at all tables you can put pressure on the players. Sometimes to play tight-aggressive is the best exploit. If it's a late stage of a tournament, meaning it's final two-three tables or it's the final table, that's when you are fully can use the advantage of your stack size. But remember, that it's a disadvantage for you to eliminate short stacks or double them up. It doesn't mean that you should play tight against them or deliberately keep them in the game, but you should not think you can call their re-pushes with whatever hand you have, or taking chances against their pushes with a sure losing hand, just because your stack allows this. Your goal here should be to maintain your advantage and play loose with your open-raises and contbets, but to be very level-headed when someone re-pushes or open-pushes, or showing strength postflop. All of this is going to lean to a looser play, if we're talking about knockout tournaments. But still, hunting for bounties, especially with a big stack, is for the middle and late stage - when bounties are big, not for the early stages when the bounties are small, starting ones. [/QUOTE]
