Message: [QUOTE="DS3, post: 5535590, member: 407846"] No doubt many cash players can play tournaments well. However, cash games and tournaments have different parameters and therefore different skill sets. Cash players will discuss the difficulty of adapting to a multi-day tournament for example (multi-day tournaments generally providing the higher rewards). It takes a certain kind of patience regarding hand selection and playing through tables which are going to reseat as the field diminishes etc. a constant readjustment to various playing styles. However I am sure its a two way street with a player who is used to MTTs needing to take time to adapt to the immediacy of cash games. That said, I do think it requires a particular skill set to regular place, let alone final table an MTT- battling through a few hundred players is both a challenge and a reward in and of itself.
