Default Re: Why do I tighten up when big stacked?

Deep stacked play is a lot different than normal 100bb stack play. You don't have to be scared, but you definitely have to be aware of what you're doing. You certainly want to avoid getting AI with AK or 88 pre when deep (at least, the vast majority of the time), but that doesn't mean you can't play them.

I'd say to drop down to a limit where you're not feeling the money pressure of playing deep, it's a pretty crucial skill to have unless you plan on ratholing everytime to build up a decent stack.
