I've seen people so well covered up now, while playing live poker, it's unbelievable. Wearing hats, headphones, sunglasses, a concealing long sleeve shirt or jacket, gloves, and a mask, including full tubular masks that go completely around their face, ears, and neck, that you can't even tell it's a real person under there! Haha.
Do you think people will try to continue to wear masks, long after the Covid-19 pandemic is behind us? And how would you feel about that?

i think that anyone can do whatever they want as long as the game goes on
If you need information on the table or the player , you should be smart to retreive it from people

I will definitely continue to wear them - especially during flu season. It has nothing to do with covering my face and everything to do with protecting myself and others.

Masks I feel are here to stay. Like others have said Masks will be used to stop the spread of the flu. Once I don't have to wear a mask anymore I will stop wearing one and move on from them. I find them to be more a pain than others due to the physical work that I do for a living.

I heard they try to hide the poker face, since the face is expressive, they can scan your face to see if you are lying,

I will. Wearing a mask has kept me from getting colds for almost a year. Way too many germs at a live game!

Hello. I have become so use to wearing a mask that I catch myself walking out of a store, walking to the car and begin to drive until I realize I have the mask on. That is how use to that I am. As far as others continuing after the pandemic to wear a mask, it is their choice and the one thing that may bother me at times is I will not have mine on.

People still trying to brake the rules and argue about the mask. My opinion like yours you have to protect people and yourself first. A lot of people still not believe in Covid-19, I have a bad experience with that, so always wear the mask as I go out from the house. Me and my family as well.

You know there is a russian saying about that "the fish rots from the head". The same thing everywhere now. They are saying to stay at home and they are the first ones who are not following that.

I haven't seen any games really run outside of Vegas and FL. I wonder if it will come back when the vaccine gets rolled out.

The six casinos are still closed in my country since the start of the corona pandemic I really miss playing live poker and I'll wear anything that asks me, not just a mask if they open .
Love for others what you love for yourself, and prevention is better than cure

If the casinos allow it, people will do it. I guess it depends on whether they allow it in a post-Covid world or not. I don't see why not.

I agree and also it’s not even that bad I don’t even notice it now. I have noticed I usually get a little ill from playing in card rooms especially in the winter. But with all the mask wearing and hand sanitizing I’ve been flu free and have been playing nightly at the card room. So might stay for me as well.

if I were to play poker live I would definitely use a cap scarf glasses unfortunately everything I can't hide on my face makeup unfortunately my nicns poker face: D

I'd like to know where you can get these concealing long sleeve shirts and jackets, my local stores only have the regular long sleeve shirts and jackets.

Precautions are part of poker. I believe that players will continue to wear masks not only for protection, but to protect their tell.

wearing a mask helps me in poker
