    Do I play the same way? Since I'll have twice as much chips, do I play more loose and call more hands I shouldn't or should I stick to my starting hands?

    play tight, wait for hands

    i <3 deep stack tournaments... no rush at all, only the fish are in a hurry to find chips early in these things and if you stack someone early you're good for a long time of folding

    Isn't this a lil backwards? I'd play tighter at the 1500 ones because you don't have much odds for pps and connectors. In 3ks you can limp with some good hands early.

    I usually like to splash around a lot with deep stacks, sometimes almost like a maniac.
