You do not show a max bet amount, so for round 1 you should be all-in (or at least the max) from the first hand, until you get to the level you think you need, to be in the top 35. You have roughly a 22% chance for getting to 8000-10000 in the first 2 or 3 hands. When you have this amount, you are sort of between a rock and hard place. If you have 8000, I would go all in to try to get to 16000. If you have 10000, then you can use a progression of 3000 and then 7000 if you lose to get you above 12000. If you bust out then rebuy if you think the amount you pay is worth playing in the tournament
Round 2 and 3 sound like table winner format. You should use the strategies which are outlined in the Blackjack Tournament section at http://www.blackjackinfo.com/
I notice in round 3 that you have 100 hands (did you mean 10?). If it is 100 then you should be betting the minimum for a long time.

Tournament play requires a different playing stategy as well.
It's not you against the house, it's you against the other player's totals.
With a limited number of hands, you have to think about unconventional moves such as splitting tens.
