I Believe There Is No One Winning Strategy...
Every Player has to figure out for themselves what works for them and fits their comfort level and natural style of play. Keep a list of notes on how you will play, what works, what does not work... keep refining this list over time...
Watch teaching audio / video... this will trigger new concepts. Some you may not be comfortable with and you will discard, others will resonate and you can incorporate into your game. Also, be prepared for a surprise, as your experience and game develops, you might re-visit some of those earlier discarded concepts and be able to start incorporating them into your game.
Also, different types of games may require different strategies... not to even mention different phases of each type of game... oh well, you get the idea... it is a never ending quest to improve your game.
Best of Luck at The Tables All,
