The title says it all....
I've been playing NLHE for about 2-3 years and I've always played tournaments, and have been successful in them. I started out playing play money, and my results were very good, I placed first in 100-200 player MTT's more times than I can remember. Lately I have been playing small stakes real money and have been having pretty much the same results as in play money.
So basically I understand most of the fundamentals to poker, I feel like I have pretty good online "reading" skills against most small stakes players, etc. BUT when I play micro-stakes cash games ($.02-$.04) I hardly ever make a profit.
I'm very aware that tournaments and cash games require a different style of playing, and I thought I sort of knew what those differences were, but my results tell me otherwise.
I was just wondering if anyone had any insight on this, and could explain the key differences between the two, or if you just have any tips on cash games I'd appreciate your input. Thanks
