I've never played PL before, but am in a freeroll that starts real soon....... anyone have any quick tips for me regarding PL games?

Just so you know, I feel pretty confident with my limit skills, and know the ins & outs of NL(still not real gret, though), but PL, I've never played.

in a tournament, there is virtually no difference except that it is harder to get all-in once the game gets heads-up. you should rarely be betting more than pot in a tournament anyway.

raise premium hands accordingly as you would in NL, this becomes easier as the blinds increase.
i find that tptk or abouts needs to be bet strongly (ie. the pot) otherwise you may find yourself in trouble
in lower blinds, try limping bigger hands and allow more callers, thus if u hit a good flop you can bet out, and there is sure to be some fish who will call, hopefully to your benefit
