What's your biggest leak when playing live?

Thanks!

Yes I did pretty well for WCOOP, thanks for asking. I won my PCA package, the Tilt Super Sized Sunday $635 for $44k, and made some other final tables including a few in the Stars $109+rebuys. All in all I think I was up a little over $20k.

Yeah, I play a pretty healthy schedule while playing WCOOPs to try to reduce variance. I've been trying to find my perfect amount of tables to maximize return without taking too much attention away from the most important events and I think that's right around 8-10 tables for me even though I can max out at around 20 MTT's as long as none are HU, PLO, mixed games, etc and most are full-ring NL.

I'd say my biggest leak when playing live is just getting bored too easily and not paying attention as much as I should to every hand, although I'm trying to get better at it...without popping pills/ADD meds like so many pros have started doing nowadays.
