I play mostly one-table NL tournaments (Pokerstars, Partypoker and Paradise) and I am doing quite well. I finish in the money about 50 % of the time.
BUT when I occasionally try the multitable NL tournaments, I *never* do well. My tight-agressive style just does not seem to work. I sometimes manage to stay with an average stack "forever", but then I am usually kicked out by some monster stack.
I guess the solution is to play more aggressively early in the tournaments. Could I please have some advice on *when* to be aggressive? Should I make huge raises pre-flop with hands like QJs? Or should I move all-in to try to buy pots when an "innocent" flop (e.g. J72 rainbow) hits the board? Not all the time, of course, but now and then. Or should I simply play more hands (I see the flop about 30 % of the time)?
