    Default Difference between cash and tournys?

    Ok, i seem to be able to play tournaments, mostly just sit n go's, but when i go to the cash table i only lose money.
    What should i be changing when going from tournys to cash?

    I've heard some people can only win at one and not the other, but am wondering if it's a massive change in style or if there is just a slight change while playing cash that is different to SNGs.

    I have the same problem - I do tournies ok, but as soon as I sit down on a cash table I may as well give my money away.

    Cash is awesome. Tournaments are gay. IMO.

    Yes, most likely.

    God, imagine if you had a whole table of tourney players playing cash like it was the early stages of a MTT. Shit the bed, I don't think i'd ever be able to quit the game.
    Walking away is easy. The hard part is standing up.

    Probably.


    Im an MTT player not a Cash Player. But Im getting better at cash slowly but surely. All you can do is practice and be able to change your style and not just use one style for everything.

    I'm good at both, but lose in the end.
    I threw away the 150 I had in my account after 2nd placing in the Heads up value..
