Anyone have a preference on this?:Coming into a NLHE final table second in chips. Do you take control (bully), or sit around for a while and let the smaller stacks take care of themselves?

Well, you have 1/6th the chips in play. Don't flame. I'm just asking a question... You have no info on half of the players... it's a MTT SNGfor instance, a $5 27 man tourney

play whatever style is comfortable for you and coincides with blinds and other players stack sizes.

The reason I asked I guess, is I get there in this stage and I normally finish 2nd/3rd due to tightening up. I guess I should say, is there any advice to help me to get to a favorable position in heads up?Granted, the cards matter alot, but I'm a tighter player who is learning to loosen up. Ie.... stealing more blinds.... is there any plan of attack that would be helpful? I know, HOH is the next book I read too.

play aggressive at first, but once they start to realize it(calling river bets with high card, low pairs, always checking to you with good hands) tighten up

I play tight at the start and start stealing like crazy when youre on the bubble.
The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.
