Default Re: Translating Sit n Go Success to Cash Games

It's not a matter of tightening up. You have to be aware of the stack depths when you play NL, and in tournaments, the stack depths are usually much shorter than in ring games. With deep stacks, there are decisions to make after there is a raise preflop and a bet on the flop and turn. In a tournament, someone is often all-in by that point if not on the flop. Implied odds are very important with deep stacks, and implied odds often mean you can play more loosely.

There are some other, less important factors such as how players react to the threat of being eliminated.
