Early stages of tourney always open pot, usually bet pot on flop in continuation betting or even betting for value especially in HU pots, everything else keep basically the same as NL. Vague, but that should get ya started.

Uh, seriously, this is pretty horrible advice. there are few differences btwn PL and NL. Major difference is you'll run into people who will overbet their hands like rounder is suggesting. I like PL for this reason - it is like people forget how to play poker or something. The big thing is controlling the size of the pot. If you don't want someone to be able to bet you out of a pot - keep the pot low with your bets. That's it - some control over how much you're risking on any given hand whereas in NL someone could ask you to risk your whole stack.
