This. If you banked 180k$ two years playing MTT, then it certainly should be something you should consider doing 95 % of your poker time.

(profit, although some was staked) i havent been a cashgame grinder in like 2-3 yrs and all advice i give on lp is a joke usually i take it as constructive critism though, and will work hard on my 6max games to be solid once again ;-)

but how much did u lose?

is tourney poker and cash this different?

and it always seems that cash game players adjust better to tournaments the other way around why is this?

so much poker theory is applicable to both imo, cash is deeper i suppose, but aren't events like the main event super deep stack?

Cash game players play with 100+ bb
Tournament players play with ~20 bb

Cash game is deeper so more complex (by far)

ya waga's spot on

one is dramatically higher variance then the other...

think about it.

I dont understand this "long run" shit in poker. Totally applicable to cash games provided you have the roll, but tournies? Man...you can be making a +EV move calling from BB that runs into the top of his button jamming range and just bust a tourney. Where's the edge???

your edge isn't reflected in the results of every single tourney just as it isn't for the results of each cash game session -_-

well it could be if you played really, REALLY long cash game sessions.

Not really because you'd end up playing -ev because you're supertired

it'd still be somewhat representative of your play during the sample though being supertired and playing -ev is a separate issue.
