How to Attack the WSOP, Part 3: Coming Prepared

One of the appeals of poker is that anyone can do it, at least on a basic level. As Chris Moneymaker showed when he took on a slew of pros like Phil Ivey and Sam Farha at the 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event, all you need is your wits, nerves of steel, and maybe an impassive face aided by a pair of reflective gold lenses.

That may indeed be the case, but a few extra supplies and a little bit of preparation will go a long way toward making your WSOP experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
