My Plan is pretty standard; to go conservative in the beginning rounds and to become more aggressive(blind stealing, playing more aces, etc) Is their any main problems to this strategy or ways to improve it?

When they limp you raise
When they raise you reraise
when they reraise you shove

Yes please do this when I'm sitting next to you at the table. I'd love to add you stack to my pile with my TPTK...


Better said: bet/raise or fold, rarely call.

From my VERY limited live experience...

I noticed that many of the live players do NOT play on line, many seem to dislike even disrespect it. HOWEVER the reality I think is, the game IS the same, bad beats - crazy draws do happen in both (live and online) - but a frequent online player has a REAL advantage over the people that do not play on line - and that is way way way more experience. You have soo much time compared to on line, can really watch people and have tons of time to make decisions.
So - play confidently - if you are a good on line player - you will be very successful - play same as you would on line - just don't jump up with joy when u dealt pocket rockets. :p

just play with power hand AA KK QQ AK AQ AJ

^^ Sure-fire way to get blinded out of the tournament here. In the early levels your range should be fairly tight, but as blinds increase and relative chip-stacks decrease you simply have to open-up your range, or you'll find yourself as the short-stack and out fairly quickly.
