Do you Prefer Tournaments or Cash Games?

[Marcos mats]

I prefer TOurnaments every day in the week. It's like day and night, i really cant understand how anyone can appreciate cashgames, the thrill in tournaments when u get to the finaltable and double up.

The nits gets there ass beaten, because the blinds go up, in cashgames the nits just wait and wait and beat you with higher set... and u are down and need to grind up again, at that point i tend to tilt. In a tournament i get just as mad but i am out and there is not much i can do about it.

If poker was only cashgames i would be out of it. I can win a tournament and be 100dollar up in a day, but at 10NL (my level at CG) i get like 10dollars in the best of days.

Tournaments or Cashgames and why? (u cashgames guys have to explain extra hard why you prefer cashgames before tournaments )

I prefer the tournaments too, I prefer to play a table than cashgame I have nothing against cashgame but my preference is for tournaments.

😎👊

Maybe it,s really better to play cash games. I usually play tournaments, but it,s hard for me sometimes to keep patience, so i can loose easy cause of that. In cash you can play with the breaks, so maybe it,s time to change tournaments for cash games.

I prefer tournaments, i just lost too often in chash games, but i still am believing that in cash games you can win more money...

 

[Djmickre]

To play in tournament more interesting for me. You can win a lot

 

[fordman427]

I enjoy tournaments but I like cash to play mixed games

 

[CriesuaID]

Cash Games, some tournaments take too much time, and I like to simply close the table when I want.

 

[Amdrius]

I prefer tournaments, although when there is not much time available, I play cash. I prefer tournaments because of the possibility of winning a large amount of money in a short time, as well as the emotions received at the final table). I think tournament poker is real poker !!!

 

[Samuel Kollapso]

I prefer tournament, but also cash, because of the short time, the cash allows us more mobility.

I do not like chesh game at all, there is a lot of money in it, the tournaments are nice and I know when to stop

 

[discintildeath]

Sounds like because you may not want to wait around for good hands like is recommended in a cash game you may prefer tournaments that require people to have a strategy when they have less BB's. If you have the choice to always have 100 BB's or more as in a cash game you NEED to find your spots by being patient not by strategizing as you get down to 20 bbs.

I'm better in tournaments, and I enjoy competing, but I'm working hard to become a better cash game player.

 

[Fastone2]

I like a lot of people to play with in a tournament, sa long as there are many payouts.... Because of the number of players and the luck factors.
But, I am beginning to like cash games even more. Especially whenever I want to limit my time at the table.

 

[frnandoh]

I prefer...

Tournament because in cash I shoud have a discipline that I have not yet: To know the stand up time.

 

[SweatPea]

Cash games by far, can leave whenever i want

 

[MURPHYFFL]

tournaments. i like to start with the same amount as everyone else. and sometimes cash games are slow and dry. not worth the time or money sometimes

 

[Rational Madman]

Anyone else enjoy cash games more than tournaments?

I don't just do better at them I enjoy them a lot more. I find they bring you far less anxiety and unhappiness as bad beats are things you can avoid much better.

 

[cranberry]

I like cash games more than tournaments. Cash games are more relaxed, at any time you can enter or complete the game. In cash games can not become famous, but there is an opportunity to increase your modest bankroll.

 

[Tricktappic]

Hate tournaments. I played them ALL the time when I first started playing poker and quickly realised they are not the stuff that dreams are made of. Don't get me wrong, i smash scoop or micro millions but just cant stomach playing regular tourneys anymore. Much prefer cash.

 

[vitalii029]

I don't know how but I just love tournaments in tournaments more chances to win this is just my opinion

This is absolutely incorrect. You have less chances to 'win' real money in tournaments. The entire tournament means nothing in terms of financial gain until you are ITM.

 

[ELPRIIINCIPE]

I definitely prefer the tournaments, for example in a micro tournament that is what I'm playing for now, I risk a $ 1.10 entry and the same I can get multiplied by 100 if you win the tournament, otherwise the next tournament and look for that final table, there is also the excitement of measuring you with thousands of players, in 2NL cash games you enter with $ 2 and at most you can generate $ 8 or $ 10 at a table and that if you run with the luck of not finding with a fish that wins you with a bad beat. and if you lose those $ 2 reload and if this situation is repeated you can lose much more than playing tournaments. that's why I'll stay with the tournaments ...

 

[allinraw]

Cash games cuz they are fast money and you can relax doing it..

 

[Verfox]

I like to play them both. Cash games require more discipline and tournaments more patience and knowing the tournament stages, as i see it.

 

[Ivansito26]

I prefer tournaments, Im best player in tournaments
