I've never worn sunglasses at the table before, but I think I may for my first trip to Foxwoods next week. I'll know that the woman that calls me an a-hole is obeythekitten! Wearing the glasses may be less embarassing than trying to work the phrase "brown trout" into a conversation.

somebody please explain how wearing sunglasses would be -EV, especially if the consensus is that the sunglass wearers are morons?
ive worn them once or twice in the higher of the games i play, and i felt more comfortable. heck, i may even start wearing them more often.

For online, you could just turn down the brightness on the monitor and then you won't need sunglasses.

I just cut the bottoms out of 2 coke bottles and then coat them with soot from a candle, then put them in some old frames. If you go this route, I guarantee that nobody can see your eyes.

Last night I wore a brown paper bag over my head. Cut two very small eyeholes. Had a big night...

Looks like a bunch of losers to me. And that's just a few.

It all just reminds me of the old song:

I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
If you get an outfit, you can be a cowboy, too

...

Face it, it's all about fashion, and everything else is just rationalizing the whole "how do I look" obsession.

I think there is a good probability that someone is going to show up with a full halloween costume (Or something equally re-donk-ulous) at this years WSOP just to get on TV...

What the hell kind of shades have you been wearing that allow you to pick up extra tells? You might be surprised what you find w/o the shades.

Even though I'm not a sunglasses guy, I can see that wearing sunglasses would allow you to watch someone without them knowing, which is when they are most likely to send out tells.

Hah, I never thought of that.

This makes me want to get a pair though.
