PS--I was pretty sure the guy sitting next to me was a 2+2er. He kept talking about Pokertracker and such with other players. I played dumb and said I didnt play online because computer poker was fixed. I didnt want to say anything to identify myself. But now that we're away from the table, you should really know that you have very bad dandruff and offensive body odor. Also, as mentioned above, you dont protect your cards when you look at them.

Baseball hat tilted slightly to the left hides your eyes completely from the players on your left.

I kind of want to wear sunglasses at the table now, just to piss of all the 2+2 nits who make such a goddamn big deal about this non issue.

I dont know why people give such a hard time about this issue. I dont personally wear shades myself, but last friday I wished I had. I was playing 10/20 and was sitting next to a player who consistently failed to protect his cards. 4 out of 5 times when he checked his cards, I had a clear view of them from the corner of my eye. This went on for 6 hours. I could almost always tell the rank, and most times I could tell the suit. Although this guy had horrendous body odor, I didnt ask to change seats because of the tremendous advantage I was getting by seeing 4 cards prelop. I wished I had my Oakleys with me because I thought my sidelong glances were too obvious.

This opponent could certainly become less odious by showering and using deodorant, whereas your character-driven odiousness is probably not amenable to any such quick fixes.

This is unethical - you should tell him that you can see his cards and ask that he be a little more discreet when looking at them

That would be kinda cool if one of those sunglasses guys wore that funny looking white stuff on their nose while they played.
