In tournament poker, it’s important to understand, fundamentally, that each chip is not worth the face value that it represents. The easiest way to conceptualize this is to think about what happens if you win. You may win all the chips in play, but you only receive roughly 20% of the total price pool. This phenomenon gives us insight into how we should be approaching tournaments to formulate our strategy.
The most important principle to understand in tournament poker is the idea that each chip is worth less than the previous one. In the real world, this is referred to as diminishing marginal return (DMR).
What does this mean for your game plan?
Well it means that when you’re a big stack (with 120 big blinds, while the field’s average stack is 50 big blinds) you should be extremely aggressive, since the additional blinds don’t increase the real-dollar-value of your stack, as much as the original ones.
In other words, you should be looking for good spots to apply pressure with 30-50 of your big blinds, attempting to gain more.
When you’re a middle stack, you should aim to pick on smaller stacks, who you can threaten to bust if they get involved with you. You should, simultaneously, stay away from larger stacks that can threaten your tournament life.
As a short stack, you are at risk of being knocked out by nearly everyone at your table; consequently, you should look for good spots to go all-in, ideally when you have some fold equity. A classic example is what’s called, restealing: shoving over a loose opener.

Excellent video and just what I was looking for. Still lots of weak / inexperienced players in the low mid stakes imo. I quit playing in 2011 and recently returned. I am certain that the field as a whole is weaker then it ever was. Being patient now pays off more then ever with lots of people bluff jamming opening too often wide ect. I remember the tables being full of nits and I was one of them. All of us waiting for a hand playing tight. You still have to loosen up as the blinds increase but the difference now is that you can easily tell when you have the likely range advantage. Would always run into a premium back then. Just my 2€.
Granted 66 isn't great for this as the probability of hitting a set is terrible and its on the cusp of being a weak-mid pair, but why is this a shove or fold scenario? His 3bet is only 2.5x roughly, why can't you flat here?
