Cash games and tournaments are different ways to play poker. Which one of them is a better play for you whenever you're ready to play poker? Do you like to specialise in playing either cash games or tournaments? Maybe you're into playing both of them but one at a time?
 
I prefer cash games because it offers more flexibility and you can control your bankroll more effectively. The only thing about the tournament is that it provides bigger prizes which may be appealing to some people.
 
I prefer cash games to tournaments. You don't need to ride your luck in cash games as with tournaments. A good poker player is more in control with cash games than with tournaments.
 
It is true that both poker tournaments and cash games are different. Competition and the possibility of big rewards, as well as the freedom to manage bankrolls are the major differences. But, personal preference and playing styles determine our decision.
 
I think it depends on your goals and schedule. Cash games give you more flexibility. you can leave anytime and your chips have real value. Tournaments are more exciting with bigger potential payouts, but they take hours and you might bust out early. I prefer cash games personally.
 
Cash games is good if you don't have the mental stamina to play for a long time. If you are still learning, cash games should be the best option. You can quite the game any time you are exhausted. Tournament is for experienced players who can last for hours grinding. Tournament is more rewarding but do you jave what it takes to last all that long.
