I do this.

I play one cash game and one tourny. I ike the cash game cause there is'nt much slow play. Not like tournies. They like to slow play you in tournies. See then the cash game comes up. You play the cash game first. Find out where the dealer button is at when you win. Unlike tournies you do'nt switch tables. So the point do'nt change. It is'nt exact math, so you wait for good hole cards around the point. "one of the spots next to it and the spot itself." There a problem making money in cash games. usally its to the rake. Thats why you need a tourny. Best way to do a tourny is bet good hole cards a third of time. trying to find your point in case your at a table long enough. you pay attention to the table spread on the tourny. Because the payout better.

i like playing more the tourneys.i think its ''real poker games''.cash games i belive they have to do with luck more than tourneys.i like the process of gettin in with a small amount of money and after 3-4 hours you may get out with 300 times your money or so. sometimes i even enjoy slow playing that occurs in tourneys.finally i get nervous more often in a cash game cause of the constant playing.so i prefer the tourneys and especially the big multi tabled ones

i prefer zoom cash games because they are quick and easy money with a bit of luck. But tournaments are okay if u are willing to play 4-5 hours of 1 tournament... i dont have that kind of patience especially if I'am unlucky

Tournamnets and cash are really different in almost everything: players, skills, risk to take, way of play...

I specially like tournaments but in cash games we also learn very much about poker skills. I only play cash if I have no time to play tournaments.

And if you tilt in cash you can get out or (major players did it) you will play until lose considerable. After you lose, you will see that if you play tournaments it would be more profitable and without spend too much!

I enjoy playing tournaments the most but i think cash offers the most benefits for me, basically is a trade off im doing, sacrifying long term EV for short term estability.

I also prefer tournaments. I have lately played cash games only to cover the buy-ins for tourneys I am playing. This way the prize moneys are 100% profit for my bankroll..

I like tournament poker. It's exactly like some kind of sport game. You must to think about long time strategy. Also in tournament you can win good prize without riskeng big money.

I like more MTT than cash games. In my opinion MTTs are the best place to test your skills and moves, and prove yourself your game is real good. There are a very large amount of players of different playing ways and moves.
