Why do you think checking your balance is a problem?  Does it affect your play? 
  
Poker is a long term game, blah blah blah, but I don't see any harm in knowing how you are doing in a given session.  I actually have my table total on my PAHud layout. 
  
Great idea for a prop bet though (if this is an issue for you).
