    No. CASH is much much more stressful. You'll feel like killing yourself after a 7-8 buyin downswing within one day. Or when somebody sucksout on you with deep stacks you wanna just punch something.

    Neither is that frustrating if you practice proper bankroll management.

    idk. I practice 50-100 buy ins for the tourneys I play and still get mad when I get down to final two tables and end up missing the final table due to a 2 outer or something like that and missing a big score.

    guess Im the only one.

    To me nothing is more frustrating than playing cash. You go busto, reload, and lose it all over again. At least with tournaments, you can only lose what you buy in more, relieves some of that stress. I would rather much grind out playing sngs than cash any day of the week--except saturdays.
