It's fine to generally play a loose-aggressive style if that's what you're comfortable with. But if you approach the early game playing tighter, you should absolutely open up your range to pressure opponents when you're a big stack near the bubble, near the final table, or anytime at the final table. Exploiting risk aversion as a big stack can be one of the most profitable situations in tourney poker
