Both styles require completely different approaches.

Do you feel more comfortable playing deep stack strategy, or do you prefer the simplicity of short stacks?
Why?

I prefer deep stack - more room for skill and maneuvering. Short stacks are simpler, but less room to outplay opponents.

Short stack is pretty easy to play, we are just looking for jam spots, so it’s push or fold generally. Deep stack play is more fun because we have our whole tool box to work with.

In cash games playing short stack i s easy but it limits your potential wins. In MTTs you need to master both styles.
