Once you have reached the final make sure you don't do anything too hasty, getting knocked out as the first player on the final table is not a pleasant experience when you have come so far and spend all those hours getting there. What you want is to go all the way, you want to play down to two players and feel the first prize to be one pot away.
If you have a big stack or medium stack you can play basic strategy and try to pick on the smaller stacks. However, you must again be aware of avoiding big stack confrontation. If you have a small stack you must find a hand and go with it. Remember to be the aggressor and not the caller unless you hold a great hand. Do not wait until you are so short stacked that doubling up will not make a big difference. It is better to make a move with nothing than to get anted out of the tournament. As players get knocked out you will have to play more aggressively, especially when it is down to the last four or five players. If the other remaining players are only trying to outlast each other, you can play aggressively and steal the blinds and antes.
