I have been playing a tight aggressive game, waiting for the right hands to open with. I have been folding a lot of hands that hit the flop, I smile and stay focused. My stack drops do to blinds but then I hit AA or AKs and go for it, doubling my stack. I want to say thanks, the post here have made a difference in my play. The point is that I leak less chips to bad starting hands and have more when the good starting hands come around.

thanks

2 things:
1. Make sure you reload back to the max buyin when your stack drops 5% below the max buyin. This will ensure that when you do double up, you get as much as you can.
2. Try playing more tables at once. You get to play more hands without sacrificing quality of hands. I started with 2. It seems a little crazy at first but a month later I was 4-tabling without any problems.
