Hi there, recently I've been finding myself running deep in some low stake ($1-$5) tournaments online, I am fairly competent during the early stages of a tournament when the average stack is 50-150BB, and im reasonably competant when im short stacked bellow about 15BB, my issue is when im playing in the later stage of a tournament when the average stack is bellow 40/50BB. Aside from the odd bad hand I can usually find myself going into this stage of a tournament with a reasonably sized stack above or around the average. Then it seems to just go downhill from there, I have a stack thats too big to shove most hands preflop but I am also concerned about calling even small raises preflop with marginal hands due to wanting to preserve my stack, which I think leads to me playing too tight and being blinded out. Is there any advice anyone could give me for playing this stage of a tournament?
Thanks in advance and I apologise for the long winded question.
