Re: optimal strategy for tight-typical/passive live game
If the table is passive and tight, you need to tighten up preflop, but you can loosen up on semi-bluff and bluffing a bit and steal a few additional pots. There's a great chapter in "The Theory of Poker" by Sklanisky on exactly these types of situations.
Raise preflop when you've got the hands to do so. If they aren't paying you off on future betting rounds it is even more important you get those bets in before they see they missed the flop.
