Poker apparel outside of poker events ie in public places

What are the effects of it? What are the consequences of it? What are your experiences?

You mean at a party? I would assume a distinct lack of vag.

No way, not if I wear this t-shirt. Then it's raining vag, esp. if I wear my cool wrap around sunglasses. I'll literally be "all-in."

Haha oh god thats funny..specifically at 2:40am.

Uhm, it depends on your intentions.

I wear Pokerstars T-shirts in public places such as the grocery store, bank, convenience store, or shopping mall. Heck, I might even wear it to a rock concert or a friend's party (maybe not if there's some special girl I'm trying to impress). More often than not, I just don't care if other people find it 'objectionable' or indicative of a 'socially defective scumbag.' I make my own appraisals of myself and I'm responsible for what I think; not what others might think. All this being said, my employer doesn't let me wear clothing with logo's on it because it violates the company dress code. All my co-workers know I play poker so the issue is just following protocol. That being said, I wouldn't wear clothing with poker emblems at church, weddings, dates, funerals, special banquets-you get the drift. However, I would generally wear them without concern unless it's specifically prohibited or a special event.

Yeah, I wear my nicer clothes to more formal events...like my ripped-off sleeves jean jacket and Napalm Death t-shirts. Plus anything that my mom made using the Bedazzler.

Nothing says cool more than "Joe Cool" on the back of a sleeveless jean jacket in Bedazzler beads. I usually only wear that one on dates, though. It competes with my similar Tales From the Crypt jean jacket. The Crypt Keeper is so rad and most ladies already know this.

Very true, poker does not get ass. I may have to start a topic...

I have a half-dozen Stars shirts and wear them all the time (I'm even wearing one right now). I choose laziness (doing laundry, or rather not doing laundry) over fashion/style. I actually had a woman come up to me in the grocery store once and start talking to me about playing poker, which was kinda cool/random (woulda been cooler if she was hot) but other than that, nothing...I continue working towards my goal of having a poker shirt for every day of the month and only doing laundry 12 times a year.

In general, wearing T-shirts announcing your hobbies is perceived as dorky. The only acceptable form of this that I can think of is sports attire.
