I'm usually not a fan of sunglasses or headphones. The weather will usually determine the type of shirt I wear. When it's cold, I will try to go hoodie or sweatshirt... I hate wearing a coat/jacket in the casino - there's just no room.

Played a few days at the CNE Casino in Toronto this summer and did fairly well.
There was this young kid around 20yrs old wearing the baggy clothes ( I called him Eminem).... Anyways, he knew the rules,wasn't very strong but was hitting hands left and right.... Now he wasn't the brightest bulb out there and that's for sure... he was sitting at the #2 Seat and I at the #4 seat.... (11 handed so I am basically looking dead at him when facing forward and a hair to my right.) So, as I was saying, this guy thought he was Mr. Poker God..... And every so often he would put his sunglasses on... Usually after losing a big pot..... Did I mention they were mirrored sunglasses? It was great, I would check my cards every time he leaned in to look at his cards.... I kept count and saw his cards 16 times over the course of the afternoon... Only one hand of note....He had KK and was mid-position and raised with KK. I had K-J or K-Q and was able to dump them with my newfound knowledge. True Story. |

That's gotta be the coolest thing ever. I wish I had a superpower that would tell me other peoples' hole cards. It would be great to not have to worry about reading people. You could play it off like you're a genius by calling people out.
They'd be amazed. Enough wishful thinking.

Sunglasses may be a bit silly yes
Even though they can help, not because youre not giving away tells, but because you can look at someone without them knowing it.I personally like headphones though, not to distract anyone, just kind of something to keep me focused as well as keeping me off tilt (metal calms me down ya know ). It is pretty silly though to go for the biggest earmuffs you can find at radioshack...Defendant |

If it is with friends, I play as I am. If it is with people I do not know, I use everything I can to disguise my play; that including a walkman if it is permitted.
