Default STRATEGY >> NL vs PL

Hey guys.. I tried a search but it turned up too many random threads that made it impossible to sift through so I figured I'd start this thread...

I'm a mid-stage player right now... have learned to tighten up, and am now learning the aggressive side (when to make moves and when not to). Overall I've done pretty well online and even better in local home games and down at the 2/4 thru 4/8 tables in Tunica. My primary game is NL Tourneys but I also play a little low limit to flesh out my bankroll with less variance than NL.

Last might I entered a PL 3-table tourney at PP and had a decent run despite not being in the right mindset to play well. Finished with a nice return for 4th, but I made some pretty bad plays at times....partially due to not being focused, but also due to a lack of familiarity with the PL structure.

My question is basically this....aside from the obvious differences (how much you can bet)...
• What STRATEGIC differences exist between PL and NL?
• What advice would you give to a NL player interested in exploring the PL format a little more thoroughly?
• How is the level of play at PL vs NL? My first guess would be fewer "fish" at PL due to the popularity of the "all-in" among them...but I don't know for sure.
• Any other advice...particularly for tournament PL play?

Thanks in advance...I'm fairly new here but a longtime lurker and I've learned a LOT from these boards.
