In other words.... learn how to fold.

I'm hoping I can see some cards, as I'm considering playing in the single day WSOP circuit event in Hammond the 24th.
Two years ago I was on in Vegas and got into a WSOP Bracelet event, $1500 buy in. I was crazy excited about it, but cost my focus because I was in the Rio sportsbook playing Belmont and Arlington, had P3's going while the first hands were being dealt.

I was at a table with Yung Phan and another pro, who I ended up knocking out, and I ended up lasting 6.5 hours. I caught some major hands but I ended up losing complete patience, mostly due to playing blackjack all night and not getting any sleep the night before. It was a good experience though, looking forward to doing it again.
