Online Poker : Cash games V.s. Tournaments
So i decided to make this thread, i had about $40 on Carbon and played Mtt's ran horrible went down to $1 and made that $1.97 into $12.54 at 2c/4c, thinking about switching to cash games online, o love cash games live and im thinking cash games might be more profitable online, im not tied to staying in a tourney for 4-5-6 even 7 hours in some cases, all sorts of advantages in cash games, u get a fat stack and u dont feel like playin anymore u can just leave
Thoughts?
opinions?

I prefer tourneys. I HATE rake in cash games! They just.. Just... Take... Steal your money! I like to play reg tourneys with small fees. That way you have a better chance of winning.. Generally.

the key to cash games are limiting your losses. Dont sit down with much of ur roll. So if u lose no biggie and u wont play scared since you dont have all ur money on the table

i believe cash games take more skill than a tournament.. im with you RV that cash games are more profittable.. iv'e lately been readjusting my game at the tables, and cracking leaks in my game to start making a profit.. its a absolute donkfest down at .02/.04
i think if you roll yourself right, and use correct bankroll management.. your be in 10nl soon enough by the sound of how your playing.

I play cash games and tourneys as well, but have to improve both, lol. But I strictly stick to a careful BRM, so I am fine.

Much rather play tournaments, they are a little more forgiving

I think the tourneys are slightly less donkish than the cash tables, if donkey play tilts you.
