    Sunglasses while playing online poker?
    I don't know how to make a poll but I find it weird that if I put the sunglasses on I tend to focus better. I hope I'm not the only one

    I'm pretty sure you're alone on this one.

      It just doesn't feel right if I'm not wearing my shades

            Doesn't count unless you fold down to under a BB, and you have at least 5.8 times as many withdrawals as deposits, and a bunch of other bizarre qualifiers that change as needed to ensure there's only one match

              Well, duh, OF COURSE I wear shades while playing SBR poker.
              All the true pros do.

              And who really cares if that's the *only* thing I wear?

                You could mini cash every day & still won't sniff any leaderboard.

                      Ron I haven't tried the hoodie yet, only wraparound shades so far.

                      Idea came to me after wearing them in the bedroom, I call it Ray Charles week so the wife understands.

                      I like to put them on before certain hands and mentally envision amazing things happening by the river.

                      It has increased my average finish in MTT's substantially.

                        Razzer, use shades and neck skin. Should increase your winning percentage by at least 9%.

                                          hey wussywaves, hate to bust your bubble, but sbr only programmed you to win that to generate interest in the 'dead as a hammer' poker message board , and to punish me for posting your mugshot on the web......

                                            Problem with Tripe, he's incapable of giving credit when it's due. This became clearly evident last year, when Tripe chose to make excuses as to why he lost to Waves.

                                            We're not in a contest this year. You chickened out after I crushed you last year, taking you for 29k. As far as my other contests, I'm crushing POS in annual pts, currently tied with DS in WC, & cut Donkey's 3k annual lead to a measly 665 with approx 5 months to go.

                                            That's hardly getting crushed by everyone else, as you ignorantly claim.

                                              .... waves still obviously riding high -- way TTOOOOO high -- on the adrenaline rush of finally winning a rigged daily where he was programmed to win...... what is that waves, two measly wins on the year?

                                              don't blow a gasket today celebrating this one to two times per year occurrence......

                                              and, be sure to follow your own oft-stated rule of not talking shit to people above you on the yearly leader board......

                                              now, get back in you hole, and Stay Calm and Suck Somebody's Dick

                                                I have no issue giving credit where it's due; problem is, you played terribly...not just my opinion, it's a fact. Your ignorance of basic poker concepts prevents you form seeing it, but it's pretty obvious to quite a few of us.

                                                You know better or should know better for the rest; it's been explained to you multiple times...your inability to comprehend reality doesn't change it

                                                  I have no issue giving credit where it's due; problem is, you played terribly...not just my opinion, it's a fact. Your ignorance of basic poker concepts prevents you form seeing it, but it's pretty obvious to quite a few of us.

                                                  You know better or should know better for the rest; it's been explained to you multiple times...your inability to comprehend reality doesn't change it

                                                  So according to Tripe & others, it's a fact I played terribly last year when I finished 7th on annual board.

                                                  Apparently Tripe played more terrible than I, as he finished well behind me. Funny how I don't see anyone else chiming in to corroborate your fairy tale.

                                                  Just another example of Tripe's inability to give credit when it's due:

                                                    Correct; you played poorly last year, yet still were able to make the annual leaderboard due to a combination of luck, angle-shooting and playing more often than anyone else. Shame you just think you're making a point and haven't actually come to accept it...ironically, if you were capable of understanding the difference, you probably wouldn't be as bad as you are

                                                    Why would anyone else chime in....plenty of people have told you how bad you are, and no matter how much proof they show you, you're unable to accept it. Trying to construct what you want to be true from isolated facts isn't a profitable strategy, and it's no doubt one of the big reasons you can't turn a profit in poker outside of freerolls. Nothing wrong with that really, not many can...but don't think you'll avoid having actual poker players point out your foolishness when you air it out.

                                                    Can't wait to see what excuse you drag out this year for why you "lost on purpose"

                                                      To corroborate your story, that I'm a poor player. Nobody else has, as they would be foolish as you to do so. When all the evidence (leaderboards & cashes) points to the contrary.

                                                        Well, looks like you've got me dead to rights there....about the only thing that would change matters would be if I said something else immediately after the small part you quoted explaining my words. OH WAIT:

                                                        Well look at that: as it turns out, your bewilderment at why nobody else chimed in to this specific thread was explained all along, just a few pixels after you exceeded your capacity to read apparently! Take a nap, get someone smarter to help you, and then try to read and comprehend the rest of that sentence...the answer to your confusion was right there all along

                                                        After you've done that, take a long break and get a tutor, and maybe we can move on to the concept of evidence (tip: it's not "whatever tangentially-related data I can pull out that supports my opinions, to the exclusion of all other data")

                                                          And to get back to the OP, have you ever tried computer glasses? If you spend a lot of time staring at a screen, it's supposed to help quite a bit if you suffer from eye strain.
