poker with masks?

I was just reading about Phil Laak dressing up like an old man in 2008 wsop.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/poker...ary&id=3602251


it got me thinking, what if 900 entered a poker tournament, and all 900 of them decided to wear a bag over their heads? Or a ghost mask on their faces.

Is this allowed? Can tournamnet pros do anything about all 900 wearing "masks"?

Re: poker with masks?

It seems as though currently no tournaments I've heard of have a rule against this.


But I think that doing it makes you look stupid.

Re: poker with masks?

What if everyone wore different masks and in between each break there were secret mask exchanges going on, would mulit-masking be allowed?

I think most casinos (those with facial recognition software at least) wouldn't be warm to the idea of masked people wandering the casino during a break in the tournament...

If there was a trophy for the worst poster in the history of 2+2; I'm pretty sure your name would be all over it.
