6MAX skills in MTTs: advice and approaches?

hi all-

just played my first MTT today and placed 9th out of 218, good for $214 gross on a 40+4 entry fee. overall i am happy with how i played. i busted out on a pair of 7s vs his aq suited and he found the flush even tho i flopped my set. :x but i did notice that my 6max skills REALLY helped a lot towards the end, where the money cut was already made and where people were trying to go up the latter. agressiveness? uh, yeah. hardly any flops seen, and the ones that did make it there were usually putting someone all in. we're talking bets of 12000 when the blinds reached 1000-2000. at any rate, i'm just curious to hear what your experience is with MTTs ,and specifically, how you apply skills learned and used in 6MAX to MTTs. i think overall the agressiveness that is part of 6MAX gives its players some good insight into MTTs and i'd like to hear it.
