the fact that 1st is 10k and 2nd only 2k you should be willing to rebuy early on and take close gambles to get a big stack to try and take you to first

edited the payout after looking up the website, does this change anything in your opinion?

i still think you should gamble because they are some big blind jumps like the one from 200/400 to 500/1000 so your gonna need to have a big stack by then to handle it

This is a half bump and a half thanks....i kinda thought those blind levels would turn this into a pushfest rather early. Any other thoughts??

If others are playing tight, play looser..if others are playing loose...play tighter.

Don't come to the game thinking "I'll play like this".

I think OP question is about how the payout structure should effect his strategy.
I believe that its crucial for a good player to adjust his game to payout-, blind-, (and player) structure.

i dont know what to say, the blind structure is crappy and payout top heavy so be ready to rebuy and build a stack early
