Default My first post....any help appreciated

Hi...this is my first post on these forums. However I have been a loyal reader of 2+2 books for a few years now. My situation is this...I have been playing live NLH cash games and have been a consistent winner over the last 3000 hrs of play. I started in 1-2 games and moved up to 2-5 and sometimes 5-10. My regular game is the Bellagio 2-5 game. When playing, I am completely aware of the importance of position. I have all of the odds and numbers down cold. I play a tight aggressive style when I am in the pot. I am aware of my competition and what type of player they are. I am also aware of how they view me. But on the other hand, I dont do anything "fancy". I dont reraise with hands like 76s in position. I dont make huge 3 barrel bluffs. When all the money goes in I have it...or I have a huge draw. The bottom line is, I do not give anything away. That does not mean Im a nit....it just means when the deep money gets in there I am almost always winning. I feel as though why should I push small edges and gamble for big bucks? Why try big bluffs? I know that sooner or later my competition will give me the money or make a huge mistake. They will eventually over play AA when I have a set. They will stack off with AQ on a A72 board. They will draw at 4th nut flushes without regards to position or odds. So my question to you all is....am I leaving too much on the table? Am I making fundamental mistakes in the way Im playing? Should I be mixing it up more? I simply choose this style because it works...it reduces my variance....and as I said, they will eventually give it to me. Any help is really appreciated.
