You should learn how to speak properly before worrying about how other people dress.

Priceless.

Poker pros need to be more modest and nicer but dressing better has nothing to do with being a gentleman. as long as you don't smell and don't show too much butt crack appearances don't mean jack .

Be nice to other players(especially the fish) , be nice to your dealers and staff and thats it.

You MrWong, are wayyy of. the fact that some people don't want to spend $500 on a pair of jeans makes you a better person, not a worse one
