What kind of Shades you wear at the Tables?

I have seen a lot of cool shades out there... both on the ESPN, and on some of my home games...

but I go with my OAKLEY GASCANS... black, with black lenses... they are pretty nice...

I wear just regular glasses..and a ball cap.

I'm more worried about my hands shaking than my eyes giving me away.

I usually wear ski goggles..they're orange.

Mine are Ray Ban - Shot Square model.

I'm beginning to hate my Ray-Bans, and I really want reflective wrap-arounds (mostly for overall wear, not for poker play). I don't like to wear accessories while playing poker, mainly because I find that I intimidate people more in person! However, if anyone knows some good wrap-arounds for those with narrow heads, I would love to hear from you!

You should check these out. The fire irridiums are, well, hot. And just $.99 right now.
OAKLEY GASCAN JET BLACK WITH FIRE IRIDIUM SUNGLASSES - eBay (item 230291677653 end time Sep-20-08 11:56:14 PDT)

I have a pair of black iridium 5s, that I bought for skiing. They block out 93% of light. I was able to wear them returning from an eye exam with dilated pupils. They really saved me, I could almost look at the sun. But they are not for indoors. I have a collection of vintage Revos in almost every shade of mirrored lens. These are all better for indoors. I really haven't played (outside of a home game) in years, but if I were to wear sunglasses at a casino table, I'd think mirrored lenses are a must. If you love your Oakleys, I think the fire or gold iridium would work better.

I usually don't wear any hats or glasses... but I did wear this once at a bar tourney. Ended up winning, too -

I might have to buy some custom made ones! :smile:

I have a custom pair of glasses i waer at the table. They are gold fade but that is not important. what is important is that my eye doctor after a lot of discussion perscribed the lenses so that my vision is 20/15 from about 2 feet to about 15ft. if it is in those distances I see everthing.

Those contacts are so wild. They have so many to choose from, but the price is insane. I heard they last 3-5 years.

I dont actually wear any glasses at all. I do wear a ball cap though, but that is bc I always wear a ball cap. Dont need the glasses to win!!

I wear different shades for different occasions, The first one is for formal occasions, the 2nd for the beach, the 3rd at the motor racing, the last 2 I use for poker.

I've had mine for just over a year.. still goin' strong

I'm hoping to get those flame ones by the time Halloween rolls around.

Those flame ones are fk'n wicked! I bought a pair of "white out" contacts for holloween last year and was unable to fit them in. Every time I got close to my eye I would blink or get squeemish. I freak out when I get an eyelash in my eye, don't know what I was thinking spending $100 on a pair of contacts.

I think you can get eye-drops for that.

I saw this in F.Y.E. last night.... Pretty sweet, I'm thinking about getting one of these hoodies! It zipps all of the way up and around to look like a mask.

Haha, those hoodies are awesome. They have Spider-Man and Venom hoodies like those, too.

I don't wear sunglasses while playing poker. Never had to worry about sun in my eyes at the poker table . I do however like my Iridium's when I'm out and about.
