How do you get through the 12 hour days? One thng I am bringing are 3 headphones, charger. Can I read my kindle during play if I am not in the hand?

The most important part of playing WSOP tournaments isn't necessarily the hands you are in (although they are obviously important). In my opinion the most important part of playing a WSOP tourney (or any tourney really) are the hands you are not in. It is important to watch every hand to determine the playing styles, the bet sizing, physical tells of all of the other players at your table.
What you learn from watching all the hands you aren't in can help you make decisions in hands you are in by applying your assessment of your opponent from prior hands you weren't in.
Thus, I would recommend that you not read your kindle during hands you are not in. If you aren't paying attention to what other players are doing in hands you aren't in, then when you do decide to play a hand you can only play your cards. You won't be able to play the player.
