I don't think you can really compare the playing styles of cash and mtt tourny players. There is a very different mindset to both. In MTT, if ur out ur out. In cash games, you can always just buy back in. In addition, it may just be the lvl of MTT you are playing. Once you hit the 50+5 MTTs i see more advanced play.
