~If you think like that, you are likely to get beat~ The top players will call a raise of only 250, especially early doors, espcially in a cheap tournament

If you have aces and its checked around to you you still have to put in a big raise, say 500. Its tough luck if you get no callers, but you have to raise the pot high enough so only people with paint will play with you. Aces must be protected properly or 50% of the time they won't stand up
