All I can think of for now

This is very important for someone used to playing online tournaments. (assuming you aren't playing freerolls and $1 SnG's)

The average live tourney player is somewhere between Weak-Tight and Rock. All they want to do is make the money/final table. A great majority of them don't consider themselves short-stacked until they have less than t500 or 2-3 times the BB(whichever is higher). So when your A9 in the BB is raised by the Button with M3 - M5, you have to give it MUCH more respect than you might online. (unless of course said button-player is a complete moron)

* I can't even keep track of the number of times I've seen a live-tourney donk fold AK to an all-in bet of less than 25% of their stack, getting 4,5 or 6 to 1 on their money because "He had to have JJ or QQ and I didn't want to race."
