Is wearing a mask allowed at the poker table??

We all know there are hundreds upon thousands of players who wear sunglasses at the tables to hide their tells and have the ability to mask who they are staring at.

Would the casinos condone it if a player wore a mask like Darth Vader, Richard Nixon, Grim Reaper, Homer Simpson, or even Beavis and Butthead??

Someone wore an Elmo costume w/mask during day 1 of the WSOP at the RIO. My guess would be yes.

I would hope that the answer is no due to security concerns, but you never know...

How about a Lone Ranger mask? That only covers up the around the eye area.

What if the Lone Ranger himself wanted to play? He couldn't be expected to take his mask off now, could he?
Hi Ho Silver, Awaaay!

Well no, of course the lone ranger wouldn't have to take his mask off. That would be silly.

I believe this is Elmo? (Not up on my muppets.) The worst part would be being the guy eliminated by him.

They don't mind, if you don't mind being greased by about 10 security guards.
