I already miss Portland! I tried 12 tabling. It went ok other than not being able to beat KJ. Sweet sweet drugs could heal the pain. I'm coming back PORTLAND!!!

Get Sirius satellite. Then you can listed to it online as well. I either listen to stand up or sweet music. I don't reccommend watching TV as it is way too distracting.

OP, I would definitely try playing continuous sets. Maybe start with 4 or 6 tables at first and see how you like it. Whenever you bust one table open up another right away. Its alot easier to open up another table when you've got 5 going already than it is to open up 6 after busting the last set. Also one nice thing about playing in continuous sets is you don't have all your tables approaching the bubble at once.

Continuous tables rather than sets, and give yourself a goal of x tournaments per day. 50 is a good number.

That way at least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, you know you won't be stuck in your seat for ever.

I listen to music and dance in my chair. Which is what I do everywhere...in the car, at work....I guess I'm always bored, lol.

I remember I used to sometimes smack myself in the face too...that worked pretty well for another hour or so of concentration.
