If you play too man hands, first of all, it's visible on your avatar (40-60) is a too high score. people will know most of the time you move in with something like J10. Second of all if you play too many hands, you are not able to compete with the higher probabaility of somebody haveing AA or KK. So you loos right? Of course, if you hit triple Kings, you freaking get the chips. In torunament play overall you need to be very careful, observative and most of all, professional.

i always try to amass the max chips i can get.

I always use balance, but sometimes we need to be more aggressive and other times patient.

As you said yourself, it depends. There are tournaments with add-ons where it's worth entering MLR and getting the add-on, so it depends more on the format of the tournament you're playing.

Depends on the tournament and the players in your table.

There is a chart of starting hands on the Internet, try to start with them and get under your opponents, in any case, only an aggressive game brings money, but the best button is a pass
