Is a fast start necessary?

I think a big question you should ask is why is your stack dwindling those times you don't make a move. You don't need a double up to not bleed.

no you dont need a double up, but if you're not getting hands, you're gonna bleed. its like a sng when you have <600 chips in L4... tight play leads to this.

My question is when I get borderline hands, like QJo... do I play them? almost certainly in late position if Im opening, but middle? Do I call a 3xbb raise with them? I think all this talk about being tight early is messing with my head, but its kinda crazy to be TAG the whole time, and end up having to push/fold since you hover at 10bb's after 2nd break.

god that was a ramble. sry
