I reckon tourneys are more fun. Cash games can be a real grind sometimes.

Re: Which do you think is more entertaining?

does PAD count as a cash game or tourney? because there's no payouts and its winner take all - so its like a cash game with increasing antes kind of.

cash games are my favorite tho

Re: Which do you think is more entertaining?

Some of the table talk is interesting but PAD is easily the most boring poker show ever made. I would rather watch reruns of Poker Royale than PAD.

As for the poll question -- cash games, for sure.

Re: Which do you think is more entertaining?

Cash games cause single table : players don't need to rebuild a specific image while moving tables.
So less Holywooding, more action and you see real reaction from players when they play for scare money that you rarely witness during tournaments.

You would never see Barry Greenstein asking to Durrrr if they want to play a pot with a couple of hundred G's less of tournament chips in a pot.

Re: Which do you think is more entertaining?

It depends on the players, but overall it would easily be cash games.
