but since we're only going to cash in 20% of our tournaments (which is a typical cash rate for a good tournament pro), we can go a LONG time in between making money when we play tournaments, so you have to be prepared for that. in my opinion, cash games are much harder to succeed than tournaments. There is no easy route to making money in poker, just because cash games requires less time investment, that doesn't mean you can make money quicker. Tournaments require much investment of time and smaller investment of moneyĬash games require less investment of your time, but a bigger investment of your money If you don't have good patience and only have a few hours to play each day, cash games will likely be more profitable for you If you have massive patience, and plenty of hours to play poker each day, tournaments may be more profitable for you Each format requires different skill sets, and which one makes you more money will depend on your skills
