Cash Games vs Tournaments

[JohnnyDeepStacks]

I like cash games and tournaments at the same times on tuesdays, on the 3rd week of june in leap years.

Yes cash games are similiar strategy to tourneys only thing is in cash games people are not as quick to call with mediocre hands

I really like the $10 OD tourneys on bcp. The first day i got 8th place. The second day i got 4th. I did have to try a few times a day. It really sucks when you get knocked out after 2nd break but thats how it goes sometimes

I think it depends on the bankroll at the time what makes me play what I do. I love the turbo sit and go's because it fits my style better, of gambling and making people make a decision. I am not a fan of the 1 dollar rebuys because that is just an invitation to donk it off. I love playing .10/.25 omaha that is the game where if you pick your spots can build a huge bankroll..

you play a lot more hands in cash games, so you encounter a lot more situations. what makes it tougher is that if you make one small mistake or miscalculate a range, you stand to lose 1-2 buyins in one hand.

tourneys are fun, but they are high variance. some of the tourney pros can play like 1000s of games without making a good spot in the money. same thing happens in cash games, but with tourneys of 1000+ players it can get real sick.

I do best when I focus... doesn't matter if it's a tourney or cash game.... patience and paying attention are the keys to both
