Not sure which to choose as my main game going forward. I will obviously continue to play all three but I keep wondering how much I should play each.
I always loved playing MTTs. I feel I'm good at them and that's what brings me most joy. However, I'm not sure if it can be profitable to play mainly MTTs. I watched Negreanu's masterclass in which he says that your main source of income should be cash games and only a small percentage of your winning should go towards MTTs.
My problem is I find cash games boring as there is no finish line, no pressure of the clock, people can come and go when they want, they can play random just because they can always rebuy, it's just not my cup of tea. Obviously I will continue to play some cash to keep my skills sharp as the overall quality of play is better than in tournaments but I don't think it will ever become my main game. It just feels too much like going to the office and I already have a day job.
When it comes to Sit N Gos I'm somewhere in the middle, I like to play them from time to time when I don't have time for an MTT and I usually do well in them.
How much do you play each type in order to enjoy yourself but still be profitable? Or is it wrong to consider enjoying when it comes to trying to make money?
