wielding a big stack in limit HU sngs
 
I was wondering if some of you can talk about how your strategy changes as you accumulate a stack in limit HU play. Say you have 25BB and Villain has 10BB. You have a long while until the next level.

I think 10BB(no matter who is the short stack) is still big enough stack to play your regular game HU.Around 5-6BB your implied odds go down so big cards gain value.With less than 3BB you can try to go all-in Preflop and flop with any Hand with good showdown value.

bump as the only reply obv didn't read the post correctly (I said large stack play not small stack play though that can be useful as well). There is no such thing as a "normal HU game" especially in SNGs where you either end up with all the chips or none. I realize this question is opponent dependent and has a lot of situational factors involved depending on how/if they are reacting to stack size changes.

there is no way to "wield" a big stack in hu play unless your opponent is playing scared. you don't gain any ev against your opponent that is over and above your chip equity.
