Default Re: The Freakonomics of Tournaments: A Preview (74s UTG at final table

Pure genius!

This is textbook case of how a Big Stack should play at FT. Your chips are worth less because you have more of them and for every calm and patient villain who will wait to make a stand with JJ+ more will wilt under the pressure and fall to the need to act as M shrinks. As your stack continues to grow with their chips you turn up the pressure on the remainders. Everyone is feeding the other guy to the alligator.

I often bust out of tournaments sooner than I otherwise would because I'll push back at the Big Stack if I feel he's trying to run me over. I believe I'm not not just playing THAT particular hand but it's for every other time I'll cross swords with Big Stack Bully or anyone else at the table.
