thia case is sensitive if you're at bubble. however, is recommendable to wait a strong hand to shove. avoid to call if your stack is not enough whit cards like A9, QK because if you don't connect a pair or better at flop, you will findyourself in a terrible situation and you'll have to fold or shove (too risky)

Chances are he got to be the chip leader by playing aggressively. If you have strong hand, play back at him.

It is very relative

It is very relative <depends on many factors that need vc swarming to not lose chips without ncessidade. The position that you are, and especially the historical of each player at the table, some are vain pro game with high cards, other bluff a lot, so you only will realize the pattern of each during the game, to know what you can do in each situation, more of course with lots of you is comfortable for very precionar players largarem their hands and thus earn a lot more chips, because at some point the tournament some people do not want to risk

slow playing with good hand in position. But if you have no good hand for a time, look at that how often he use fold button. If it is nearly never -- you may risk with average hands to cut his stack. If he folds adequate to reraise or push -- use unconvinient posistion for him to beat him out. Something like this

Yesterday I've been crashed by A5o against my AJs. That was big stack agressor, so I can't say about specific strategy to play with, because of that simple situation (with crashed strong Ace) happend very often.

Well shove is always an option IMO, and they do fold quite often too. Of course its best to have a at least Ax or a small pair. And don't be afraid when it's bubble, because it is time when big stacks love to bully everyone even with trash hands.

I think that the best way to play with agressive player is playing TAG and using the check-call raise strategy when with strong or nut hands to pick their bluffs!

Aggressive chip leader usually raise even if he have bad hand,so if you reraise he fold often enough.

Exactly.

Another option is just play excellent hands, but you can't be unlucky as a bad hand can win too.

play on the contrary, if he is agressive you have to be tight and wait for a good map

the way to play with the aggressive chip leader is to wait for the right time when top 5% premium hands you are dealt, if one hand of those play calling station if you hit the hand , or play aggressive if the board structure is dry and play cautiously if hes betting aggressively on heavy board structure.

Moreover everyone has its own style to play either against aggressive or loose player.

Wish you luck at the tables.

Wait for Monsters and shove

cheap leaders will always try to squeeze smaller stacks.
wait for Monster hands and either limp- shove or shove immediately

As a chip leader you should, you should put pressure on your opponents, by opening wider, but not crazy: for example if your standard opening from UTG+1 was AJo, then now you can open ATo, also you can start opening from the CO same range you would open from the BTN, when chipleading. Put opponent in tough spots, especially on the bubble, may be even double barrel with weak holding as it will put a lot of pressure! GL:)
