They all require differing strategy

cash- to me is about getting maximum value for your hands
MTT- is more aggressive, and is about accumulating chips and survival.
SNG- is about conserving chips early on, then stealing blinds when the blinds get big in relation to the amount of chips you have

Whats the difference MTT, SNG, Cash

Cuz, you know, the search feature is cool. But the biggest difference between tournaments & cash games, is that in cash games you play more streets than just preflop & the flop.

in cash, people can keep reloading thier chips n donking thier way n outplay u...

In Sng, u face similiar opponent on table and u need good reading abt how they play n u muz be abit tighter than usual compare to cash. since once u r out, u will not get the chance again.

In MTT, basically is bigger scale of Sng.. opponent keep on changing.. ur chips is impt as it will need to get u deeper to the tourney.. gotta play extremely tight during some occasion n open to stealing bluff n aggro at some stage den revert back again to tight image...

In CG unlike SnG or MTT, the blinds don't increase.
So in SnG and MTT, it's essential to have stealing blinds skills to survive, and to play more and more aggressively as the blinds and antes increase.

Cash games let you come and go as you please - if you aren't doing too good -quit and try later. Not so with MTT and CnG - you register, you in until your out either as a winner or loser. Whatever turns you on. I like all the games and play them for fun and enjoyment.
