Losing all confidence in myself as a human being.

Oh wait.....wrong thread probably.

Meh.

I picked average. Mainly cause I feel pretty confident in my ability to steal blinds affectively and make it ITM through the bubble when I'm in that 1200-1600 chip range.

A little less than average suits me just fine mid-tourney (tighter than most early). Undoubtedly, as the table begins to thin and the blinds approach L4/5, I'll have no problem finding a caller that has completely under estimated my patience/pushing requirements.

Yes. Probably because I'm so used to this situation, I never panic if I'm a little on the short side. Especially with the new level 5, the added time allows me to push with a better or dominating hand quite often.

Very small.

It is easy to play it well.

Average player just gives up.

exactly, im surprised more people didnt pick this

[Vetstadium]

I like to be small to avg stacked I just feel I have a knack for knowing when it is time to make a move.

[J Chap]

I play best when my stack is so small that I am not even making any choices at all.

Anybody else notice that Party has a way of stringing you along when the size of your stack equals one thirtieth of the small blind?

[DasLeben]

I said "large," because even though I find it easy to play a small stack, I define my game in terms of momentum. I have very little momentum as a small stack, but once I reach a certain stack size (dependent on table conditions), every subsequent push adds more and more momentum. Think of it as how a small and light object has less momentum than a heavier object. Or maybe, how a star has to attain a critical mass in order to start fusion on its own.

Hell, I dunno. I'm probably making very little sense here, but this is how I think of things. So without any more rambling, my answer is "large" stack. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

By the way, the reason that "very large" stack isn't my choice is because in SNGs, I tend to tighten up considerably to conserve FE if I really don't need the chips. Of course bubble play is an exception to this. With a large stack, I'm still out there moving chips around to accumulate.

[burgi]

yep, I even won a 30+3 yesterday, after I had only 14 chips left with 4 players! I think I won like 6 hand in a row!

[pergesu]

Big stack, and it's not even close. You can just do [censored] you can't do with an avg/small stack. For example:

Seat 3: OKuosmanen (2350)
Seat 5: pattywack85 (4400)
Seat 10: MJLineman (1250)
pattywack85 posts small blind (150)
MJLineman posts big blind (300)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to pattywack85 [ 3d, 7d ]
OKuosmanen raises (700) to 700
pattywack85 raises (4250) to 4400
pattywack85 is all-In.
MJLineman folds.
OKuosmanen folds.

Ship it batches.
