Get automated scripts (AHK, etc). That saved me from RSI this summer.

It gets better as you get more used to playing for a while but you can try one of the mousepads with the wrist pad at the bottom. Not sure if that'll help but it'll keep your wrist from being bent for long periods of time. There's also one for the keyboard I think.

Also, if you play for too long (repetition over a long time, but this didn't come from poker, another game did it), you can develop a ganglion cyst (I think that's spelled right) and it sucks because I've had one for a while but my doctor won't take it out. :\

I stretch every now and then while playing.

I tried to sing that whole thing in my head Fresh Prince style. It started to suck when I had to say "king heart 6 heart ..."

thac,

you son of a mother! you should be a doctor.. i googled ganglion cyst to see if that looks like what i got... i've had one of those [censored] things for 2 years and never knew what it was, but the doctor wouldn't do anything about it...

Thank you for inadvertantly diagnosing me

Ya, it sucks.. I went to the doctor and he gave me these pills to break it up and it worked for like a month, then came back worse than before.
