I was in an SNG a while ago and the first hand I look down to find pocket aces in the sb. There is a ton of action until it gets to me where I push all in and am called by one person. I win and by the second hand I am chip leader with 4200 chips!
Now what I was wondering is if this advantage would make a normally tight player become aggressive in the early rounds or would you just sit back on your chip lead? Any comments or ideas would be very helpful because I want to know if I made the right decision. |

maybe my question or topic wasn't appropriate but to further elaborate in case of confusion
should my early big stack be considered in playing ahnds and making plays I usually wouldn't make in order to put more pressure on my opponents? |

I would play normal tight until 50/100+ blinds. At that point I would start to pressure the 2nd/3rd stacks with 2.5x-3x raises on their blinds.
It doesn't change my play too much except I am a lot pushier on the bubble. Pokerscott |

If you are comfortable playing in all gears, I would loosen up and start going for those pots no one wants. If you aren't comfortable playing anything other than your normal game, I wouldn't change a thing.

i usually think:
"i have FE for the bubble, and id like to keep it that way" not saying this is necessarily good thinking, but its how i go about it. what i mean is that i am basically playing the same with 1000 chips or 4000 chips that early...tight/passive without a big hand. Whats key is that you have the option of folding your next 40 hands and still have an average(ish) stack, so you have no pressure to make a move from desperation. |

Steal a few more pots at 25/50 and especially 50/100 because, if you're played back at, you still have loads of chips for 75/150 and even 100/200..
