And if we're going to compare cash to tourney poker, it's worth pointing out that (to a lot of players) cash games are waaaay more fun. You have more freedom to move chips around with marginal edges which I think is vastly more engaging than tourney play. Even in endgame tourney settings where things really open up, you're often mindlessly shoving hands because the blinds and your stack size dictate you do so.

I have all the respect in the world for skilled and knowledgable tourney players. Donkament jokes aside, it really is a whole different skill set. But with cash you can stay involved... playing 6-max will keep you constantly engaged in the game. And if the tables get short it can get really good.
