I tried playing more aggressively and overall I think it worked OK, though in the end I didn't make the money one more time. I don't recall any hands that stuck out so I'll go with the last hand, hand 65. Earlier I had fallen as low as 840 chips by hand 56 and was able to come back.
Hand 65. 5 players, blinds 80/160. I'm SB w/2040 chips, third at moment, two lower stacks have 1426 & 1990 chips. UTG folds, CO bets 2 BB (320), BT folds, I call and BB folds (BB is playing 9 sessions). I decide I want to see what the flop shows. Flop 4d Qc Jc, pairing my Q w/ K kicker. I debate what to do and decide to go for it w/my last 1800 chips. Since the CO has 4735 chips I don't feel betting the pot (800) would cause him to fold and if he was only trying to steal the blinds, an all-in bet could hold him off on a draw. He takes a long time but finally calls, showing Ad Jd. I have the better pair at the moment. Turn Ac. Well that sure hurts, he now has top two pair. I need a Q or a 10 to win. River 8c. Down & out.
