Tournament VS Cash game

[Marcus_Trivinho]

Hey.

I really really REALLY want to know what is the most profitable way to
make money in poker! So is it cash game or tournaments? I hear people
say tournaments is a good way to build your bankroll and some say
that it doesn't matter. But isn't there a pro or any other who have the
experience and have been a successful player for a long time who can
tell me what is actual the best way? I don't know what to study anymore because i want to study the right thing. Do i waste my time trying to climbing up the limits playing nl10 or should i play 3 dollar tournaments with 5000K pricepool that sounds alot better? I'm not in a hurry but i do want to be able to play nl100 within at least 2 years. And one more question. What is the best combination between study and playing poker? is playing poker every other day and fill the days i don't play poker with study the best (something i do now)? If tournaments is the best, how many buy ins is it normal to lose? Because i tend to lose against donkeys who shove with 83suited and i call with AK. Is 10-20 times in a row much? How often should i get to the final table (at least)? When i ship it preflop or postflop and get busted, im starting to lose the confidence in my game even when i know i was the favorite to win in every hand i lost. Should i keep staying positive and think "i am gonna win in the long run" and keep playing?

if anyone can answer this difficult topic I will be impressed and very VERY thankful!

I have been playing poker for over 10 years. Over the years, I have detailed statistics that show that cash games are unprofitable for me. Therefore, according to my statistics, I do not play cash games but prefer tournaments. However, I know players for whom tournaments are unprofitable, but they make money from cash games. Therefore, this is an individual matter and only you can determine what suits you best, tournaments or cash games.

Your bankroll will disappear faster playing cash games.

Tournament vs cash game

Tournament is more better than cash game, because ir won a 1 big tournament you get a lot of Money, at the cash game, you play to much and lose also because your mind is so tired and the bad bet make o play wrong até during you playing , this is my opinion.

It depends the player. In cash games i ve never win money. Tournaments i have my strategy. But you can play another way

When the bubble economy after a while of a tournament is same as degree of difficulty of a cash game.

That will entirely depend on which you play better. There is no universal answer to your question but rather the 'truth' is in your own poker record.

Well according to my playing time I realized that I am a regular player in both, I win or lose sometimes, but in the end I was more profitable with cash games than tournaments!

Your bankroll will disappear faster playing cash games.

Yes I agree, as the bank's loss is faster, the gain is also proportional to the loss!

Yes, I agree with you the great advantage of tournaments is the leverage of your bankroll

Você tem que descobrir qual a sua modalidade preferida, cash ou mtt. Depois disso, foca nessa modalidade.

I have better results and enjoy tournament much more. I prefer the idea of being the last man standing and getting as deep as possible. The concentration for one -two day .
I find that really successful cash players are LAG who are not afraid to make hero calls It’s not my style in the long run. Those players tend to start off deep stacked
