That sounds like a holding your breath contest. In poker your goal is to accumulate chips. Often when players play ultra tight they suffer the same fate as Uncle Broomcorn....they get Ante'd to death. Another thing to consider is that other players or their HUD will notice you are playing ultra tight and when they see you raise your aces ...they will fold.
And there are many, many such players in our freerolls :) One hand will be started by a player, as usual he will win the call and pass again :D I was watching and looking at the clock, I won't say who it is, but that's a completely different story, the player he sat and passed for 50 minutes until AA came to him.

I believe it's not that simple to say that a single player profile is always right. I believe that we should always try to adapt to what the tournament is asking for at the moment, that is, in certain moments it is necessary to be tighter, but in other moments it is necessary to be more aggressive.

I tend to play tight, but I'm also aware of my stack size and will not let myself just dwindle away. I will also take advantage of other tight players. I also take advantage of my tighter image and can force folds. There are also some regs that are aware I am playing tighter and I will adjust my play accordingly. So while I am a little tighter than most other players, ultimately the table will dictate my play.

Do you already know what vpip is? You should always want as many hands as possible profitably, the idea has to be this, play as many hands profitably as you can, extract the maximum value from each one.

Position, preflop.
Position, post flop.
Position, until the end.
There are 4 types of hand: trash, speculative hands, strong hands monster hands. The only type of hand that is easy to play is the trash hand. Just fold and watch the table while waiting for the next hand. Reserve speculative hands for the button or the cutoff. play the strong ones from middle positions onwards. Play monsters in any position.
From time to time throw all the study in the air and follow your intuition. And maybe you make a flush or a fullhouse on the flop.
