i just need some advice. i am a much better tourneyment player then a cash player. after watching myself a bit i've noticed that i gain a lot of chips in the gap stage of the tourney (when blinds are so big that it takes a bigger hand to call then to raise). basically i steal the blinds and in a tourney the blinds are worth stealing. i cant seem to play cash games as well obviously because of the blinds factor. anyone have any hints or advice or anything?

in a tourney theres basically a standard raise. is there one in cash games? just things like this that i'm not very clear on. i've read the site but i fear that adjusting my raises will give away my hand as opposed to help me.

so anything would be good to help me here.

Remember that in a ring game, the blinds don't go up, so wait it out. Ring is all about patience and selective aggression.

Be less willing to go all-in to protect your hand, and make lots and lots of pot sized bets.
