Default $3r end rebuy with Big Stack - how to play now?

I'm sat on 43k with 15 mins of rebuy left (idiot I outdrew kept pushing any 2 as a response - lovely stuff!)

How do I play the F/O? Look for spots to call in position with cards that can hit flop hard?

I've actually finished as chip leader with just over 67k.

Any tips / suggestions?

Play how you normally play. Use your stack in position to force folds. Trap with monsters when possible. Your goal now is to chip up and maintain the chip lead. Everyone agree?

100% agree, dont get too loose or the stack will be gone before you know it

This happened to me a few weeks ago i was top 10 with 2600 people left after 30 min and stayed in the top 30 untill about 50 people left which is insane. i then got soured KK < A8 somone open push UTG as he was on tilt and lost a large pot the hand before and finished 40th for only 50 bucks, sour!

Tis trew. I've donked away more huge chip leads by being overly aggressive in the middle stages than I would like to admit.

166 left and in 15th position - quite card dead so far.

In a pot with AA and reasonably tight player opens 3xBB in EP. I call as there had been a number of squeezes lately and wanted to snap one off.

Squeeze doesn't happen but one more caller and flop of K 5 3 rainbow. All chips go in

KQ
AA
33

I lose to set when winning would have neant 100 BB's and CL..

Should have reraised!
