Default Re: need more smart-ass comments to say to posers with sunglasses

A guy playing 1/2 NL at Foxwoods on Thursday kept looking at his cards for 5 minutes, finally I asked him if he could see his cards through the glasses and that he could take them off if he needed to because I already made the bet. He didn't like it too much, called, and lost.

This whole thread sucks but on a moderately serious note if someone is taking a really long time I just look at the dealer and say "time" and the dealer will tell them they have X long to act. Cardrooms have actual limits for this kind of stuff, dealers work on tips, and winning players want to be dealt as many hands as possible. I could not care less at this point if someone is wearing sunglasses at the table, but I go out of my way to keep a game moving.

i've seen a guy mock another guy for wearing sunglasses and he actually said the reason he wears them is it's bright at the table.

well i guess that proves everything, because ive never seen a person without sunglasses on not realize somebody had bet already or call a bet and lose.

"Only two kinds of people wear sunglasses indoors, blind people and assholes."

yeah, the people who mock the sunglasses are usually the ones who make the token "im a poker player, of course i lie" joke 2 minutes later. i wore sunglasses when i first started playing because i was uncomfortable with people looking at me so much. as long as they dont slow down the game i couldnt care much less what they wear.

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