If you manage to double your stake, it comes out immediately; if you win and stay there, there's a 90% chance you'll lose everything.

Open your range significantly more - cash games really amp the value of 2 pair as a hand for example as a lot of players often over bet high value pocket pair hole cards.

get a feel for your table mates (are they tight or loose players?, do they have a lot of visual tells, etc).... this info is much more important than the 2 cards you hold.

My tips, open your range a little more, dont be afraid to change tables if action is slow, dont chase losses (obviously) and keep making notes on players, dont make it personal also if someone has you tagged in a game, it happens to all of us.
Also - look at the showdowns with interest and your own opening ranges my friend, i also often mix up bet sizing to keep opponents guessing.

Do your best to exercise good bankroll management. 50-100 buy ins for your chosen stakes is a solid foundation.

Don’t play cash, the best advice I can give. Too difficult to have a winning session. Play low stakes tournaments

Good afternoon! Here are some basic cash game tips:
Play your starting hands in a disciplined way — don’t enter too many pots, especially out of position.
Pay more attention to position — you can play a wider range in late position, while in early position you should be tighter.
Don’t overvalue top pair — at low stakes, many players overplay medium-strength hands.
Try to value bet more often than you bluff — especially against players who like to call.
Keep track of your bankroll and don’t move up in stakes due to emotions.
Analyze your mistakes after each session — even a short review is more effective than just playing a large volume.
Control tilt — bad decisions usually come from emotions, not strategy.

Cash games can be pretty brutal if you're new, so I’d highly recommend checking out some of the free guide threads here on CardsChat first. Focus on playing tight-aggressive pre-flop it saves you from a lot of tough decisions later on. What stakes are you planning to play

The best tip is don't play cash games, like ever, especially in a casino. The rake will kill you.
