Default Early stage tournament strategy

I just finished talking to my friend on the phone and we had a discussion about tournament strategy. My friend suggests that a player need to play super tight in the early stages of the tournament and in the middle/later stages reverts more to his standard ring game strategy. Is that really correct? Doesn''t it make more sense to play a strategy more similar to ring games in the early stages of a tournament when the stacks are deep?

I think a person should play a regular ring-game strategy (whatever that is for that person) during the early stages because you can afford to take bigger risks when your stack is big compared to the blinds and you usually have good implied odds for making marginal plays. But it''s very interesting to see that the best players in the world can’t even agree on this. Some say play super-tight and some say gamble!

Any way I seen some good strategies articles here http://forum.pokeren-ligne.be/

Cheers.

I Think Playing Tight At The Begining Is Best It Gets You Farther Into The Tourny With Out Being Busted By Someone Chaseing A Straight Or A Flush.theres A Lot Of Players Who Like To Go All In In The Early Part Of The Game.no Matter What They Have. Its Sad To Get Knocked Out Early By A Bad Beat.
