for profit- cash I see as the best form of poker tournaments can be more profitable short term but the thing is you have to make it past the bubble and you are battling with between 200-1000 each time also with MTTs we need to have £100 to really just enter a £2 MTT. cash tables are just a case of finding the right table and waiting for them hands to come in based upon the position you have.
the key differences I see between then is variance the amount of luck involved and the beats. variance is the obvious one that I've seen other mention already when I say luck and beats I mean it in the manner of which with cash most of the luck comes down to them monster vs monster or monster draws. most times the bad beats are cooldowns because if we jam we likely to get called by another hand almost as strong or has masses of outs. in MTTs but you will get to the point where you need to jam to double you stack even if it means 79o
my choice for action and enterainment I would go with tournaments but improving skill profit and turning pro cash is the preferred choice.
In Response to Re: Cash v MTT v SNGs : Thanks for the comment! progress so far isn't great... been a pretty stagnant month, esp considering the extra volume i've been putting in. oh well. Posted by chicknMelt
Lol that comment might have appeared sarcy. Was referring to your overall progress, and your results have been fantastic in general. The curse of forum diaries means that people almost invariably start them just as they enter a blip!

ahhh, ok... i didnt take it as a dig, but I did wonder why people had been saying well done... cos to me this month isn't well done atm! not disasterous by any stretch though. I have had near £2k "blips" before - this is just varience and not playing particularly well.
