I tend to tighten up my range a LOT, play 3! or fold from every position (there's a case for flatting suited connectors, small suited aces and kings, small pocket pairs on the button), and be wary of how large their raise sizes are. I tend to defend a tighter range in the BB because they are raising to 5-6bb.
I've made the move from online to live NLH a few months back and I endorse everything here. No earbuds. Pay attention when you're not in a hand. You'll get to see someone check down with a combo draw or bet three streets with 3rd pair. Lots of exploits out there you can take advantage of.
