I would take a night or two off each week mad to get some sleep. Go to bed early and read a book. I recommend 'Born on a blue day' by Daniel Tammet. I got this out of the library yesterday afternoon and read it last night. It is a horrible feeling going to work tired each day, your brain is tired as well for the whole day.
I remember a post by snoopy once where he commented on playing at night and then working during the day tired.
When I am tired I get a headache. Did you know that people who suffer from headaches are less likely to get Alzheimer's disease.
get some sleep

true, but when playing poker you must be alert. when reading a book it is like travelling along a road you know really well, you do it almost subconsciously. there is no effort while reading and it relaxes the brain |

Personally I know I play alot worse when tired and call when I know I should really be folding.
Until a few months ago I was burning the candle at both ends and it was reducing my poker winnings but strangely despite feeling shattered, I have had a bonus and pay rise are work!
I know play less poker and if a tourney finishes around midnight I might play a sit n go but will not now start another tourney which may mean just getting 2-3 hours kip if I go deep.
I guess if lack of sleep doesnt affect your play or work then good luck to you, I know I cant do it!
