Anybody who has been on the live scene (MTTs and cash games) for an extended period and lives in Vegas knows that Mr. Schorrs story is fairly common. Its a whole different ballgame living in Vegas where there a a million places to have leaks (-ev table games, girls, tables at nightclubs, dinner at world-class restaurants, hotel suites, etc) Spending alot of money in those spots tends to snowball into your poker game and affects your play.
I remember satelliting in to $2000 PL at WSOP 2003, going home only to have a friend call that he had 4 "smokin hot" girls in his hot tub. I ended up stayin out till 4am and showed up at he tourny and donked offf my stack in about two hours. I was pissed off so I went and donked off some more money playing BJ, went home to take a nap and woke up and bought into a game where i could recoup those losses as fast as possible.
