    I assume you are referring to regular mtts

    as a newbie I would suggest that you just keep playing the way you have that got you to be chip leader in the first place. Although experienced players can use that stack to bully the table, I've also seen many chip leaders just blow the lot through an undisciplined looseness. Stick to what you are good at for now, watch how the chip leaders adjust their play and the rest will come.

    All depends how much the money means to u in cashing   if u are chip leader  the blinds be pretty high so worth stealing good to min raise n steal blinds if it fold round to u on the cut off  or ya sb v bb   if u are chip leader ya obv do summit right   so y change :)

    I would play as aggressive as the table allows you to get away with. Stack size awareness is crucial in these spots.

    If oppo is Do7h = TIGHT.
    If oppo is Matt Bates = Agressive.
    Just kidding guys!

    What Geldy says is good advice. If you're getting to sharp end of tourneys the win WILL come!

    Hi Rhino we had a bit of a laugh at the tables the other night. Much as what others say. You have a stack and are well placed don't get over confident and over aggressive. Target the short stacks and passive players. It's amazing the number of times I've seen a chip leader blow his stack, including one guy who went from 3/1 CL to out in 3 hands. And it's always inexperienced players.
