Basically I would like to play from inception of tournament probably as deep as possible because at inception its easy to build stacks
 
Stack depth definitely changes the decisions. Playing deeper gives more room for postflop play, but it also makes mistakes more expensive.
 
If you game selected properly then you should have a skill advantage you should be the deepest at the table.

If game selection is not possible you should play whatever stack depth you are the most comfortable with.
 
With a lot of chips you can get into more hands. You can even play marginal hands. And that's a big difference you can connect one hand like that and you can win big pot.
 
Deeper stacks make position and implied odds more important, while shorter stacks favor simpler decisions and less room for big mistakes.

You need to stay above 100BB at all times and reload whenever you drop below that... I stopped playing cash games though the sites I have access to force a gambling style with their Bomb Pots and by making you pay a small blind on every single hand... it’s not poker anymore it’s just a game of chance
