Sorry, I forgot to mention often there are others at the table who have doubled up, so I could potentially lose $100 on a hand, where I could lose only $50 if I moved to a new table. Sure I could win $100, but if I wanted to play for $100 stacks I would go to 100NL... I didn't leave the table, but considered it.

how do you think the big stack affects table image?
Only leave if you think those other big stacks are better than you. If not, then you should stay since you're much more likely to take their money if you're better.

I think the big stack makes players less likely to fuck with you if they're fairly new to the table and don't know what to think of you yet. So you can get away with stealing a few more pots.
