ban sunglasses 0 Posted August 24, 2006 Author Share Posted August 24, 2006 sunglass = lame banning stuff = nutlowPoker is considered a 'man's' game(that doesn't reference out ladies who play it well btw but the kind of class and sport that is associated with it. In my opinion sunglasses complete take that element away. I don't think they are so much about tells but being a sneaky snake to pick up tells...
