Don't hang much on one session though. If you are good enough for online it has to be good enogh for a live game with friends.
Don't dissapoint your friends.With that I mean they know how you play. So show the hands that they would expect you to have when you do have them. But act if you got lucky when you have the other hands.
For the rebuys I love them. I also play 20% looser then in normal tourneys but still pretty solid. The only thing is to act normal when the rebuy is over.

Interesting...
I think the problem is, like you said, in a ring game, you can simply rebuy...and I become more likely to fall in love with a hand and refuse to lay it down...whereas in a tourney, I have no problem laying down top two pair, on a board that doesn't have a flush or straight draw when I feel someone hit trips.
And, vice versa, another player is likely to fall in love with their hand...and would fold in a tournament, but will keep it, and then hit their out for the boat to beat my nut flush.
It's the same reason I hate playing rebuy tournaments...not so much that I play more agressive because I can rebuy...but because other players do.
I noticed right away when I got poker tracker that it had me pegged as a Loose-Agressive/Passive player...and I quickly changed that. I looked at what I would play, and I was guitly of raising pre-flop with low suited connectors, or T-Q with a suited junk connector...
...I've stopped doing that. And as a general rule, if one of the cards is under a ten, there's no point in playing it.
Tonight will be a big test, since I have my live weekly game with friends, to see if the changes I've made to my game in the past week translate well. The changes have made me a much better SnG player, to the point where I've only been finishing out of the money because I made a bet/call/raise I knew I shouldn't have, and it came back to bite me.
...now if only I could get poker tracker to analyze my live game
