Facts of WSOP Life: The Mechanics of Playing at the Rio

There are some big things to remember when you head off to the World Series of Poker, including how to play your best game, what your trip schedule looks like, and so on. Some simple facts, however, are also useful for me to remember as I navigate the WSOP. None of these is a thrilling bit of knowledge, but the cumulative effect of keeping them all in mind makes my trips much more pleasant.

All of these facts result from the huge scale of the WSOP. You can think of them like the din of chip-shuffling in the Amazon Room.
