Cash games offer a lot of flexibility since players can buy-in and leave the game at any time. This can be ideal for those who have limited time to play or prefer not to be tied to a specific schedule. Additionally, the payout structure in cash games is based on the chips a player has at the table, rather than a fixed prize pool, which can be advantageous for skilled players who are able to accumulate chips over time.

On the other hand, tournaments provide the opportunity for players to win a large amount of money with a relatively small buy-in. They also offer the chance to play against a larger number of opponents, which can be exciting and challenging. However, tournaments typically require a significant time commitment and players are usually eliminated once they run out of chips, which can be frustrating for those who are looking to play for a longer period of time.

Ultimately, the decision between cash games and tournaments depends on individual preferences and playing style. Some players may prefer the flexibility and steady action of cash games, while others may enjoy the rush and potential for big payouts in tournaments.

Really depends on the time I have to play. If I'm short on time I'll sit on a cash game table, play a short session and move on with my chores. If I do have time to spare I will always choose tournaments. Just prefer playing them over grinding on cash tables. :)

I prefer tournaments, although I play at a cash table more than tournaments.

I like to play tournaments if I have enough time to play poker, but if I don't have enough time, I play cash games because from it you can leave the table whenever you want, depending on how much time I have for poker

I prefer tournaments. I don't invest my own money in the game, I increase my bankroll by playing in freerolls, and I take part in tournaments that interest me with the money I win.

Tournaments all day long ! I make it like instead of going on a night out, as if I went to a casino to play in a tournament - get my food and drink and sit down and go for it! Or sometimes watch tv whilst playing if it's a free one and I'm not that bothered about it haha

if you need fast money - cash game, if there is time for a tournament of 5-7 hours, then of course a poker tournament :)

I prefer cash games, it's much faster and more stable for me. However, sometimes I play tournaments with big prizes, but it happens rarely, and, of course, I don't forget about freerolls from the cardboard forum, because with the help of these freerolls you can increase your bankroll quite a bit😊

I prefer tourneys/sng's but I'll jump in a cash game, especially if I'm involved in a rake race.
