For the past two years all my profit has come from Sit N Go and MTT

Cash games I have lost money ( not heavily ) but lost all the same.

I play 6 player tables but today decided that maybe 9 player would suit me better. How wrong I was !

I lost a massive pot with a set of queens and thats the normal story. I pick up a monster and lose. The only time I ever seem to win a pot is when everyone folds pre-flop I sit for hours on Sit N Goes and lose my gains in seconds on cash games its just not worth it.

So now I have decided solely to concentrate my efforts making money at Sits and MTT.

Anyone else find cash games too hard ?

I feel the exact opposite. I used to be a solid SnG player, but nowadays no matter what hands I play or how I play them I can't make the money. It's been really horrible... Cash games on the other hand seem so much easier, you don't have to rely on winning a 60-40 situation in order to make the money, you just keep whatever you win. It's really a matter of what you're most comfortable with. Just focus on SnG/MTT to make moniez and have some fun with cash games on the side when you feel like it.

If not for failure's bitter taste
If not for fortune's cruel duress
If luck were not so thinly laced
There'd be no value to success...

Cahs games are easy, at least on NL4 ♦ I don't like sng's because there is push fold phase. And one more reason - you can't leave the table whenever you need to.
