Getting Rid Of A Tell
 
I was playing live the other day, and a player pointed out to me that my earlobes turn red whenever I have a huge hand. Any ideas on how to control this?

I do feel myself get flustered times when I flop the nuts.

1. Pierce your ears?

or

2. Gray hoodie, wrap-around shades, Unabomber-style.

Edit: Sarcasm.

Play more live poker, particularly at lower stakes that dont matter like 2/4 or 3/6.

Stop eating sticks of butter at the table.

No, _start_ eating sticks of butter at the table. Who's gonna be watching your ears?

Or just grow your hair. Admittedly this is just pussying out, since you'll still have the tell. So, playing more until you get used to big hands or even bored with big hands might be the answer.

This sounds like something that should be in Caro's Book of Tells. I haven't read it so I don't know if it is or not.

one of those comfy lumberjack hats that have the ear flaps. I'd go with the red flannel.
