o yea for sure cash games are always getting more difficult. my thread wasnt intended to sway people one way of the other. all i was describing is the difference between the 2 and the profit potential of both.

fwiw, i started with SnG and found them much easier than cash. but that doesnt mean if i was starting out i would play SnG... i much prefer cash, and tbh wish i had played it from the beginning because it wud make me a much better player now

join date February not when I started playing dumbass, but then again someone as stupid as you to bump a thread from 2 weeks ago just to post a 10 word useless piece of **** garbage comment on a side remark that I made jokingly directed at one person who I am freinds with, this simple concept is probably above your head.

With your retarded reasoning your telling me that you have only started playing in April, 09 which I bet you isn't the case.

Shoot, swish, score, owned your face, go smoke another joint you dumbass pothead

gooday

Re: ***What should a beginner play - Sit an Go, or cash games????***

GREAT post. I was just thinking this same thing myself: which is more valuable. For me, it's cash games. I find SNG's utterly boring, as I like the action of having cash in the pot on every hand I play. Plus, in larger SNG's, two hours of fine play can be squelched by one bad beat, and then you're out of the $$ with all that time wasted. Or, to play for two hours just to eek out double your buy in is not worth it. In cash games, you can make that same $$ in one hand. For me, hands down, cash games are the way to go.

EDIT: would love to see a quick poll of which everyone prefers.

I play both, but I agree that the cash game is much tougher and will make you a better player in the long run. SNG, although sometimes methodological is a stable bankroll builder though!
