[QUOTE="soillwill, post: 4513571, member: 306347"]
I pose this question because I want to gauge the community about what x-factors are effecting their decisions in games compared to the relative stakes. For instance, if you are making around $40,000 a year then you are probably playing a $45 buy-in tourney with a slightly more serious sense about yourself than someone at around $80k or $90k. Maybe if you are in the 6 figure a year you play your cards tight because you understand how each hand is a potential investment with immediate maturity in a few hours to put towards other buy-ins in the future.

I, personally, wade between $65k and $80k a year in personal income but play cards in a conservative moronic style because I am treating my investment as garbage. There are times when I donk it up and others where I play with proper respect for the game and my opponents. Truth is, I'm only now playing like I want to win and want understanding of the game one hand at a time. Because of this, I make it much futher in the tournaments I play but lose out before getting in the money because I begin to lose my confidence and play nervously when I can no longer sense the tables intentions. But I am learning how to read my opponents better and better and how to take advantage of certain positions, especially when playing out of position.

That's just my way of playing, though. I would be interested in hearing anyone else's perspective on how they or their opponents play against them.
