I think need to try both and find what is best for you. Don't forget to check out SNG's too.

At first I just wanted to play cash tables. I liked that I could come and go as I please and the convenience that comes with that. But I got invited to a MTT home game and liked it so I started playing some MTT's online and did well. I also liked that in MTT's you never lose more than your buy in.

But OTOH with MTT's I don't like not knowing how long I'm going to play or the variance. It's big thrill to go deep in an MTT and win 20 or more times my buy in. But its big letdown to get knocked early. Especially after looking at aces and calling a shove by someone with total junk. When someone stacks me on a cash table after making a bad play and getting lucky, I just take a note on them and restack up looking for an opportunity to exploit. In an MTT when knocked out that way I could rebuy but I have to consider the stage of the tourney and my chances of cashing, not just the player I want to pick on.

Right now I'm getting into SNG's. But I still play cash and some MTT's. Cash tables require a strong deep stacked game, which I am finding much more challenging to learn. In tournaments I've been able to make much more sense out of the short stacked play in the later stage of the tourney. SNG's give me most of the convenience of cash with less variance than MTT, and have most of the emphasis on short stacked play.
