When you are in Las Vegas for the wsop, do you have an idea what to eat during the breaks so you won't feel sluggish and bogged down? Nutritional coach and poker player TJ Jurkiewicz has compiled a free e-book on how to eat healthier during the WSOP (and any other events nearby to Bally's and Paris, Las Vegas) This could be quite useful!

Details and the link are found here >>> 2022 WSOP: New E-Book Provides a Guide to Healthy Eating at the Series

People always underestimate the impact diet and nutrition have on your physical and mental performance. It's not reasonable to expect to be operating at your peak when breakfast is coffee and donuts, lunch is coffee and cigarettes, and dinner is a huge piece of meat with no vegetables or anything else.

I know this advise is smart and more but I wont deny when i Vegas I do tend to enjoy foods that may not be as smart to eat. OK to be honest, no wife and no kids I can eat all the Indian and Mexican food I want. All the Curry and spicy food I want. LOL I do have one good habit though, I only drink Chocolate milk at the table. Margarita the rest of the non playing time.

100% agree. I think its great that folks are actually thinking about eating better and taking care of themselves but when it comes to the WSOP in Vegas, its vacation time!!!! You have to go enjoy yourself and spurge on things you normally wouldn't do.

A visit to any casino for me would at a bare minimum include a visit to their their buffet to enjoy myself.

There are a few restaurants that are good in Vegas that folks should visit that won't cost you steak house prices so you should look for those depending on your tastes.

If you have a few days break in your schedule in Vegas then you're 5 hours from LA by car if you leave late night (lol) where there are countless things to do, see and EAT there as well!!! But that requires a little bit of planning and patience dealing with the LA traffic.

OOH and the California gas prices lolol. But again, its vacation time. Go enjoy yourselves.
