Message: [QUOTE="absoluthamm, post: 1282670, member: 39314"] The real difference how each are played. In a cash game you are playing relatively the same the whole time you are playing, switching it up a little based on your stack and what you may think other players perceive of you, or you perceive of them. Whereas in a tournament, like you said, there is a beginning, a middle and an end....and they are all played completely different. Many players only know how to play the beginning of a tournament, because they are not good enough to reach the middle or end(same with some mediocre players only playing the beginning and middle, but never the end). You need to know HOW and WHEN to switch those gears. There will be arguements every other day about which is better, because some people one type better than another, but what it really comes down to is ROI(Return of Investment). You have a much better chance of raising your ROI in a Ring game or SNG than you do in a big MTT, and that is basically because of how many people and the ammount of time it takes to finish one. How many times have you played in a big MTT with say 3000 people that took 4 hours before you busted out just in the money and won just a tad over what your buy-in was? That would be considered wasted time in a lot of players minds, because in that 4 hours you could have played maybe 5 SNGs(more if you were Multi-tabling), or maybe a juicy Ring game and had a better chance of winning more than that. I am personally with Muckets... I prefer Ring games or SNGs, but maybe a couple times a month I will play an MTT just for kicks.(Granted, I am talking about Buy-In MTTs, not the CC Freerolls ;)) [/QUOTE]
