when to get aggressive

[The Izebox]

I've been having pretty good success on the 30+3 sngs on full tilt, but sometimes I feel as if im playing tooo aggressively in the late stages.

Mt strategy is too play supertight until the final 5 players, and then i usually open up my betting (from the late position that is) with almost any two reasonable cards. I also become a dirty dirty blind thief.

Ive noticed tho that sometimes i start to fizzle and give away chips.

At what point do you think that its good to change gears? Do you guys wait till its down to 4 handed or until the blinds are at a certain level?

Generally when my stack drops below 10 BBs I start +EV pushbotting.

That is a tough question to answer. My aggressiveness is a direct relationship to both my stack size and the number of players.

For example, if I have a huge stack and 6 or more players I am not as agressive as I would be with a short stack and 6 players.

Conversely I may be more selective on steal attempts with a short stack and fewer opponents than I would if I had a huge stack. Instead, I would look more for opportunities to push.

Other players determine this for me quite a lot - it depends if anyone else is aggro, bullying, minraising every hand etc. If I *can* be the most aggressive person, then I will be, and I'll do it quite early, say level 3 or so, by which time the unreliable fish tend to have busted or near enough. If I have a good aggressive player or a bully to my left, I'll adapt my tactics largely to work despite them.

There is no clear answer for that. On a tight table I get agressive early, on loose tables I wait for my spots. I am usually very agressive as massive big stack or short stack
