Default how to play the bigstack?

I'm not a tourny person... cash games mainly so lookin a bit of advice.

currently 2nd in chips (27k) average is 10k in a $10 3k mtt. 60/144 remain, top 10 get paid. blinds 150/300.

whats the best way to play? should i be stealing alot like one would do in cash games from late position? c-betting no matter what the flop and how many bb?

the reason for asking is so many people seem to call with [censored], or push over, specially the shortstacks and it seems like an easy way to lose a lot of chips over time, in cash games you dont have to worry as you can just rebuy chips at any time but this is different and i seem to be alot more conservative . whats the best approach? id love to cash out for once.

thanks

don't bully the short stack, or any other big stacks, go for the medium stacks.

And don't go too crazy, people will know you are stealing, but you cant make it too blatent.

Try and size your bets so that you will be putting people to a decision for all there chips.

Also, you cant c-bet every time or people will wind up calling you down with anything
