After Andrew Robl had posted a note on Twitter asking proposing that poker bans sunglasses I reached out to the likes of Phil Hellmuth, Ben Wilinofsky, and Pascal Lefrancois to find out if Robl had a point?
Nobody wore sunglasses during my local home game. I mean, why would they? We were indoors, and the lights were on. And then one day, one of the lads turned up at the game wearing sunglasses, a hoodie, and he spent most of the night listening to music on his phone and singing rather annoyingly loud.
I thought he looked like a right dick.
It wasn’t coincidental that he had been watching the highlights of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) on DVD for the past few weeks.
