WSOP...$5000 PL Holdem Question(s)

[setter]

Using the cardplayer seating assignments for the final 45 players involved with the 4 players not seated taking Table 11 seats 5, 6 and 8 and also Seat 8 at table 12, which table would you like to be at if you had an big stack? average stack? and short stack? What would be your strategy with an average stack at Table 12 with 3 players extremely shortstacked with Eric Slidel with a big stack is at your table? and for those following Gavin Griffin what would his optimal strategy be at his table with no major "players" at his table but a shortstacked John Phan? I ask this because I am trying to figure out the optimal strategies given table position in a tourney setting against unknown players and top pros in a MTT structure.

Link to table seating below..note two "name" pros will be seated at least 1 on table 11 possibly both
Assuming these are the actual seating charts for the final 45

i read this about 6 times and still don't know what you are asking.

sorry soss, let me rephrase

If the seat assignments hold true (5 tables of 9) with Amir, Juha, Paul Testud and Nenad Medic still to be seated
Table 11 has seats 5 6 and 8 empty and Table 12 has seat 8 empty.

My questions are these...

1) What table would you like to be at with an average stack if you could pick the table?

2) What would your strategy be if you were an average stack at table 12 (note: it has 3 very small stacks and noted pro Eric Slidel with big stack.

3) What would be your strategy for playing against a table of unknowns if you were Gavin Griffin and the only "name" is John Phan who is shortstacked?

4) In short based upon your table assignment with pros and unknowns mixed together what is your basic strategy with an average stack?

The Gavin and Table 12 questions are questions based upon the actual table makeup rather than broad based strategy.

Hope this helps clear up any questions, and hopefully you can respond as I value your opinion
