Well, I'm not killing it but I've been making the final table numerous times in tournaments. I step up and play cash games and it seems like I get smoked. What gives? Anyone have the similar problem? I know there is a difference but I still get smoked and sometimes by 1 outera!!!! Wtf!!

Tournaments and cash games are simply different animals!

Read up on cash game strategy and the differences between tournament & cash game play.

I have long since concluded that tournaments bring me the main profit. Cash games are too difficult for me, so I stopped playing them. Everything is simple.

It's great that you get to the final table very often. This means you need to play more tournaments.

DaHawk, the same situation happens to me. I think we go "very thirsty to the pot", literally.

Cash games are a much more complex type of poker! There we play in 100 bb stacks and make more complex decisions!

I want to laugh at this reply but I won't.
