Lucky Chances next week is having a $200 buyin shootout format limit hold'em tournament. The top 2 players from each of the 10 tables get consolidated and then the stacks are reset. Then the top 5 players from each of the 2 remaining tables are consolidated and stacks are reset again and finally the final table is played.
What strategy changes should I consider if I play in this event particularly for the first table? Here are my thoughts: A big stack should not try and push around the smaller stacks quite as much as he normally would because the value of busting other players isn't as great, especially on the bubble. Is that even true or only true near the bubble? What other things should I think about?
