Which Kind, When?

#1 29th November 2010, 8:58 PM

I'm gonna post this here because... well its about general poker. I've read quite a bit about BRM and I understand that, but I always have a question that never seems to be a part of the BRM discussion, or at least those that know...just seem to know.

Here goes... When do you know to play One table SNG vs MTT vs Ring Game? I only play Hold'em no Limit, but I suppose you could even through in, When do you change your game?

Looking at Mr. Jesus' BRM article, he never specified why he played in a MTT vs Ring Games, or at what point we would switch it up.

So I figure ask you folks! When do you guys switch things up? And why?

Pick 1. If you love soul crushing variance and feel the need to want to stab yourself in the ankle 10 times a day? Tourneys are your game. Otherwise go with cash games.

I suggest playing a variety of game formats until you figure out what you are best at and what you like best.

Then pick one and stick with it, learn to beat it.

Play what you enjoy playing and can be the most successful at. Here is an article you can read:

i have been a 9h player for a long time. Then i have been on a sick SNG downswing and decided to play HU and have not looked back. I used to hate cash game, but when u play HU it is a totally different game.
