What to take to the tables...

I am going in my first casino trip w/o the family. I will be able to sit and play for untold hours...

I am taking a little bag with iPod, headphones, mints, gum, deodorant and cash.

What else would you take for a marathon session?

Thanks for the advise!

I LOVE IT. Do I also ask "Is this table playing that 'all 'in' game?"

( I have played avidly all my adult life (I'm 42) but not when I could stay for more than 5 hours or so...)

Re: What to take to the tables...

My kit includes headphones (in the very rare situation that there's a too-annoying player), Excedrine for migraines, floss, hard candies, hand wipes, and mouthwash. I tend to dress in layers, but if I know I'm leaving just in a short-sleeve, I'll bring something thicker and long-sleaved just in case.

I primarily play in tournaments, FWIW, so table selection and vent avoidance are not options.

In the past I've wanted more snack foods (granola bars would have been perfect) and band aids (on multiple occasions!).

I don't spend much time in casinos but why would you need a band aid?

Although your ass would thank you, don't bring a seat cushion. It could be a tell.
