Welcome to confessions of a... rookie poker player! This webblog documents my experience with online poker starting at the beginning.

Poker Fashion

Posted June 10th, 2008 - Posted in The Rookie Poker Player |

Poker fashion or lack of it is noticeable when watching one of the many poker shows now on TV.

The most obvious part of a professionals outfit nowadays is the sponsorship on their jackets or shirts.  In fact most of these shirts seem to bear the Full Tilt Poker logo.

A poker player’s accessories is where you see a more personal touch.  Some players love to wear large gold jewelry like darts players of the past and others prefer a more subtle approach with a nice watch and the cut of a good suit.

The thing that bugs me the most is the players that wear sunglasses to play poker.  Now I can understand the wearing of sunglasses under bright studio lights but I don’t think that’s the reason poker players wear sunglasses.  Lets face it - they look daft and they are using sunglasses to hide their eyes while looking at other player’s eyes.
