After ITM!

I just read Maxx101's post, and I'm not much further along...I play pretty solid poker usually (not a boast) finish ITM, then my game starts to fall apart when the big -stacks start betting 25-30% of my stack every hand! Do I push, look at the flop first, or sit on my hands and let the power at the table take everybody else out ....note : I hate to have to play my BB with nothing cards! :cry: :cry: :cry:

go here http://www.flopturnriver.com/poker-videos/ and watch elipsesjeff's $8 rebuy MTT videos. They cover an entire run through a MTT including play when its ITM. These should give you a good general idea of what you need to do...but as always there is no generic answer anyone can give for these types of questions.

move up to where they respect your raises.
