I am well aware that the best way to build a bank roll, and thus best way to ever becoming a pro/wealthy/self sufficient is to play cash. I am also aware of the concensus that cash can make you a better player and that when I win 9 players stacks in a 10 man SNG, I am only getting paid for 5. Conversely when I crash out in 4th, despite having busted players msyelf, I end up with nothing and wish I cold have walked away at an earlier point.

However, I love tourneys and find cash extremely boring. Whereas in a tourney I can be extremely patient, in cash I get bored very quickly, find myself pushing the action and making plays (some stupidly good, most just stupid). I have no idea why this is and can only conclude that even when I am inactive in a tourney, there is still momentum in the ever increasing blinds and people getting knocked out.

Any ideas how, if at all, I can develop my cash game without donking it all away? Any tourney players felt the same yet managed to make the transition? If so, I;d love to hear how you did it. HU is out and 10 man can be very dull so I figured on 6 max but that just plays to my penchant for pushing the action and getting into trouble.


Thx
