This is a good idea for a thread and hopefully everyone can learn something from it.
I'll throw this in, when in a tournament with THAT many players you just play rock tight until half the players are gone, which is usually in the first hour. After that you will need some cards and some luck simply because of the amount of chips in the game.
Once you get to 10x the BB I figure it's all in with a decent/premium hand or fold. You still have enough chips that it's not an auto call for the "any Ace" player and if you do get called you double up to a spot where you can wait an orbit or two for a solid starting hand with which you must come in raising. If you get called and bust out so be it, in a matter of 20 hands you would have had a pitiful stack anyway so whats the real difference?
Others will have much more/better advice I am sure.
