MTT stratagy is to survive untill the bitter end, and cash is for outplaying other player and taking his money and best way to do that is with bigger range of hands, out of position and of course blinds never is bigger :)

I try to play cash games tightest possible, when I have more than 40bbs. The way I play is called "marreta" here in brazil, only with strong hands, no limps and always defending your hand with raises.

Usually it works in live poker rooms here. R$50, R$1 on the button. Usually me and my friend leave the house between R$80-R$150, but there are cases of R$270, R$450

One of the biggest differences between tournaments and cash games is your investment versus your return.
Bad beats aside, every player is guaranteed a significant amount of playing time in a well-structured tournament. The large ratio of starting chips to blinds allows every player to start as a deep stack.
The only monetary investment made in a tournament is the original buy-in. Bad beats aside, you are guaranteed to see a large number of hands for the price of entry.
In a cash game, with each chip being worth face value, the same investment can't guarantee you nearly as many hands.
The attraction of having a set maximum loss makes tournaments attractive to weaker players, who are not comfortable with the amount of money they may lose playing a cash game, or casual players who don't want to invest a large sum of money into a bankroll. This is one of the reasons a tournament will have an average lower quality of players overall than most cash games.
For a $100 buy-in to a large tournament, the winner stands to make upward of $8,000, depending on the size of the field and the payout structure.
Any player can have a spectacular day where everything works out for them. On one of these days, a player stands to win 80 times the original investment.
In a cash game, you'd be lucky if the same type of fantastic day made you 20 times your original investment.

The biggest difference is blinds go up and are on a timer and in a cash game everyone stays deep and there is no timer. The biggest tip I can give unless you have tons of money is learn from the micros.

At the micro stakes, cash games are a lot tougher than tournaments. The ratio of regs to fish will be much higher. This is because cash games have much lower variance than tournaments (attractive to regs), but less potential to have an awesome jackpot session where you win 50 times your buyin (less attractive to recreational players).

Start at 2NL because the transition will be tough for you at first. Remember that you're playing with deeper stacks (usually 100bb effective stacks), so you don't always want to stack off with TPTK and overpairs. Try to play more hands which have implied odds (suited connectors and pocket pairs), which will allow you to make monster hands (sets, straights and flushes) and win big pots. Start off by playing really tight postflop and folding to raises, but gradually loosen up as you get a better feel for how the games play.

You can go back to your pocket for cash games; tournaments, no.

the big difference between MTT and cash is that the cash u have a higher percentage to increase your bankroll abruptly , so that also runs a great risk of ending up with him also because the MTT you could pay a buy-in small and profit about 20 / 50x the amount of your buy-in , but for that you will have to survive until the end , not in cash , what do you make your

Não blefe. Há todo um cenário para que você consiga blefar com sucesso. Você ter informações sobre o vilão (tipo de mãos que jogas, se ele tem um bet padrão pra cada tipo de mão), as cartas do board, número de pessoas na mão.

Por exemplo, se você percebe que um jogador sempre aumenta pré-flop quando tem carta (duas figuras, ou figura e um 10 ou 9) e no flop bate cartas baixas, provavelmente seu blefe vai funcionar.

Well ofcourse it's diference, i prefere playing mtt cause of its winnings big money included but still have to survive to its end... Cash game is based on knowing your opponents how they play and learning some strategies as playing TAG style, at turnaments is crusial to play more hands and risk some more.

There are many differences:
Rebuy
The impact of variance
Availability of tables and freedom of schedules

During a cash game, a player can get up when you want. This does not happen in a tournament.
In tournaments the big prizes are at the final table. It's hard to get that far. We need to win some flips, avoid badbeats and coolers.

you're looking at mainly variance here. many more chances to get sucked out on and to lose your chips with rising blinds and many more people to compete against than you would have in cash games. both require a lot of strategy depending on where your stack is. but in cash games typically a good player stays at 100BB if he goes below 100BB he rebuys up to it. that is kind of something to think about for any noobs.

In my opinion you should use the same strategy applied to play deep stack tournaments.
