[Phil Van Sexton]

I don't think it's worth it to bully preflop. Either everyone folds and you win the tiny blinds or they call with a better hand than yours in a big pot.

I prefer to open up my game and play more like a side game. Feel free to limp in late position hands that you'd normally fold (like 87s). You have enough chips where you can limp in and try to make a big hand. If you flop a draw, go ahead and push as a semi-bluff if it makes sense.

Since you'll be in position, you can also do your bullying if your opponents show weakness on the flop, even if you flopped nothing.

Also, go ahead and play hands like 99 or AQ aggressively. Maybe you normally call with these and play cautiously. Now you can raise and play them with no fear of going broke.
