Default Satelite Advice - tomorrow evening

Hi everyone,

I am playing a satellite tournament tomorrow:
- Freerolled into it
- Approx 110 players
- $5k prizepool, - top 20 paid
- Top 8 get tournament entry to Prague all expenses paid ($25k prizepool)
- 9 and 10 get entry to 2nd chance STT (10 players, 2 seats)

[Obviously want to get paid, but top 8 > anything else!]

Structure: 2,500 starting chips, 15 min blind levels (10/20, 20/40, 30/60, 40/80, 50/100, 100/200, 150/300, 200/400 etc etc)

(I generally play more cash than anything else)

What is the best strategy to play here?

- Should I play it like a regular MTT or focus more on the satellite aspect?
- Should I generally play very TAG?
- Should I "sit out" once it gets near the bubble if I'm on a decent stack or stay aggressive trying to knock people out when they're in push/fold mode?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot!!
Nick
