Default Cross Posting with home games - your advice to these structures?

Settings:
No Limit Texas Hold'em
No Minimum Bet
7 Players [ages 14-15]
No Blinds (Antes)
Entry Fee is 10$
Recieve 100-150 chips (depending on how long we want the game to go)
Winner Takes All Money, Second Gets Nothing
Ante is 1 Chip (Goes up usually to 5 chips when it is heads up)

Players:
MT:
In Between Tight and Loose
Passive Player
Checks a lot
Weakest Player
Will Fold when bluffing with bad hand if reraised, even if most his chips are in the pot

MM:
Tight and Semi Agressive
Willing to put all of his chips on the line if the reward is good
Agressive early, unless number of players is large
Bets A lot if he is winning

Messel
Bets with nothing
Folds if reraised with less than good hands
Likes Drawing To the River
Bluffer

MF:
Loose
Agressive
Kind of player that can get you in trouble
Thinks he is good
Bets it all with nothing
Represents pocket pairs

JD
Tight
Passive-Agressive
Likes Draws Somewhat
A little Cocky (not too bad)

SM
Tight
Agressive
Calls to see what you have if he has a solid hand
Talks a lot to get a read


Closing:

So I ask you fellow 2+2 members, what seems to be a good strategy?
Agressive in begging - risk it and make a nice chip stack?
Fold till I have a premium hand?
All in to buy pots?

Any input would be superb...
For example, how do you play smaller tourneys.
Think of this 7 person game as the final table and everyone has the same number of chips.

Thanks very very much

The game sounds kinda loose, if the structure allows it i'd advocate playing tight until it gets down to about 3/4 players then step on the gas.

7 14-15 year olds though, it'll all end in tears before bedtime methinks. Make sure the buy-in doesn't rise above $10
