I use to play like that and I had a lot of money finishes.
That said before January 2006 (1 year ago) I had only 2 win in more than 500 entrant MTTs in more than 2 1/2 years.
in 2006 tweaked my strategy a bit I won 6 MTTs and made more final table just in the 4 months than I ever made before.
I prefer to take more gamble early to build a big stack and being able to afford being more patient in the middle stages of the tournament.
My strategy early in an MTT is a mix of Kill Phil, HOH 1 with small tweaks of my own.
Belive me its really more profitable... of course I make a lot less money finishes but I reach the big $$$ so more often that it cant be compare.

I like to be agressive if the table is in tigh game and tigh if the table is agressive. In final tables super agressive!!! Becomes difficult the reading.

It's funny you know, I agree with pokeroo first and Kingjack now. I was going to go back to the books and look for a tweek or two, and thanks to KJ I will .

Never a bad thing to read book and read them again...
I red HOH1 3 times and I'm reading HOH2 right now for the 5th time!
Kill Phill will follow and it will be for a 3rd time!
I always learn something new! Or at least I always find a new wa to apply what I learned the 1st time.

Good but a riskly strategy....
Well... I found that it was less risky to play a lot of pots early and being able to put all my money in often with 2 pairs, 2overs + FD, Str8 + Flush Draw, bottom set, a pair + a FD
VS
Waiting for big hands, racking a few smalls pots early and having to put my tournament at stakes with AKo PF in the first 30 minutes after the break...
Yes I had some succes with that strategy... big time... I was a winner.
But in 2006 I made 6K in profits from MTTs changing my strategy and its twice more than I made in the first 21/2 years before. And I did'nt change my stakes....

I like to have good solid hands asfer the flop, not matter how many there left in the tourney. But I guess you did not mean exacty what you was writing. I guess you only play good solid hands after the flop early in the tourney?
Your strategi sounds like what you can read on the first page in any ABC book. I agree that is a good strategy in smaller tourneys with serious players. But if you use it in bigger ones with a lot of kamikaze player, you will find yourself far behind.

Yeah agressive playing is good if you have much chips or don't

My early stage game plan is survival, I avoid marginal hands and calls - even if I know the other guy is bluffing. But once I get to the middle stages, then I loosen up a bit and the aggression factor goes up as well.
Someone once said that it is rare for the early chip leader to actually carry on and win the tournament.
