The ante, bring in and small bets go

1, 1, 4

or

1, 2, 6

How does this impact my approach towards starting hands, if at all? I don't play stud often so my approach is tight is right.

Tables are 8 handed

You will want to attack the bring-in with a wider range for the top scenario because antes will be a larger proportion of the pot an completing to contest the antes is cheaper.

This is a critical tournament consideration and in my experience even seasoned tournament players don't make this adjustment well. Generally speaking, there will be a new ante size every 3 levels (early structure occasionally 4). When the ante goes up, from 50 to 100 for example, the first level will be 1:1:4:8, the next will be 1:2:5:10, the final one will be 1:2:6:12. You should be playing to steal the ante much more in the first level, less so in the second level and playing hands almost exclusively for value in the last level.

In the first level of the ante you'll be getting 9:4 on a steal, a truly fantastic price that means you should be stealing often because you only need them to be successful a third of the time to show a profit. On the last level of the ante your completion will be getting odds of only 5:3 (10:6), so you should only be stealing where you are very likely to win the pot or when your hand has some additional value in case you find yourself playing a pot.

There is an additional benefit to making this adjustment. You will automatically find yourself playing more pots some of the time, potentially developing a loose table image, but you'll be doing it at the lowest betting limit for the ante. Later in the life of the same ante size you can get value for your legit hands because the table will have seen you show down a King-high or something earlier. So you will have more bluffs and weak hands when it didn't cost you as much to get caught and a stronger range when the bets (and pots) are worth more.

Of course your opponents can clock this and adjust, but it will take them many levels to accrue this information and the cards dealt will literally add random noise to their perception, so your opponents will have to work hard for a long time to neutralize the automatic edge you gain here.
