Yep, just keep practicing! Like you said there's no substitute for a real casino but some things I've learned about how to practice at home I found help in the real world. Make distractions. I play with QFIT, usually the TV on and winamp or itunes blaring tunes on the pc. Sounds funny, but...

Stayed there last week for super bowl. They have new tower and casino open. Older one still there too but new one seems to attract more people. No $5 tables.
