The transition to cash - advice

Sky_Poker

Hi there

There's been one or two comments and questions about the transition to cash from normally playing Tournaments or Sit & Go games.

It would be good to get some advice collated for those doing this or thinking about doing this.

- What tips would you give?
- What are the key differences?
- Where do you start and how do you find the right level for you?

Thanks

Can you compare MTT buy-in levels with how much you take to a cash table?

I think the biggest transition for me was how I approached getting value from my hands. 

For example, in cash you are not worried if a drawing hand is calling you down when you are giving them the wrong price as you are playing a super long game and if they make their hand you can always reload and continue playing. In a tournament you have to balance trying to get value from your hand and protecting your tournament life.
