In SNGs the object is to place in the top 3. In a cash game the objective is to get your money into the pot with positive odds.

Important Tips for Cash Games
- Table selection
- Stack Sizes
- Implied Odds
- Table Dynamics

All of these things can be applied to SnG or MTT except table selection. This is one of the keys to success. You don't want to sit at a super tight table or a table full of sharks. The game will be incredibly difficult and without increasing blinds there is nothing to force action. Stack size is very important. It dictates your potential gains and coupled with implied odds is extremely important for profitability. For example if most of a table is short stacked, you can never play hands like small PP profitably because the pay out for your implied odds is too small. This can happen in tournaments, but in cash it goes back to table selection. Table dynamics is related to table selection like I mentioned in a tight table. Table dynamics tend to shift and flow a lot differently than a SnG/MTT. There is nothing forcing action so when there is action everyone takes notice. There will be a wait list for a table that is full of sharks looking to get in. Players will have more time to look at what you and others are doing. Players can tighten up without worrying about increasing blinds. It's all stuff you must pay attention to in order to stay profitable.

You're gonna have to go by feeling more in cash games coz the advent of leaving whenever you want usually means ur gonna play the rest of your stack if you're down rather than leaving a "loser."
