I would think that at some point the damage to your body that you can only repair in sleep would endanger you. Or, what if you brain doesn't just suck at figuring out the pot odds, but also starts sucking at figuring out when you should breath in and breath out? All of this is conjecture, though, I'm not educated in that field.
