Cash Games: I prefer because the stakes are never raised, and your ability to keep playing is entirely within your control (i.e. I don't have to shove with an arguably shit hand in order to stay in the game). I can relax, play longer, win a bit of money over time, and occasionally stack (or be stacked lol) in an exciting hand full of action. But there's no sense of urgency. So unless you're playing above your bankroll (guilty, I'll admit) there isn't that much pressure so you can focus on actually playing the game than worrying about going broke in a few hands if you aren't dealt anything worthwhile.

MTTs: I like to play those as well, for the opposite reasons stated above. I like the dynamics of the stakes being constantly raised and the thrill of catching good hands early on to set myself up to run deep with (I'm looking at you PLO8) and being able to bully shortstacks on the bubble. There's is definitely a lot of strategy involved, but I feel like you get the thrill of degenerate gambling without actually risking all that much. Just my $0.02 anyway.
