I just re-read the OP. LOL. But then I remembered why I stopped ordering clothes from Full Tilt:

Text of Letter:

Dear DABOMB1983

Congratulations on reaching 500 FTP points. We've enclosed the apparel item you have requested. Before wearing, we wish to inform you of a number of conditions regarding the public usage of the enclosed Full Tilt Poker Head Covering Device (hereafter "the hat").

Under no circumstances should the hat be worn:

- With any dominated hand.
- With bottom to middle set while another player has flopped top set.
- With any flush other than the nut flush.
- With any spade flush or spade flush draw ("Spade" is TM of Pokerstars).
- With any draw containing less than 4 (four) outs.
- On the 'Money Bubble' of any tournament (play money or otherwise).
- Within 48 hours of any 'interaction' with Clonie Gowen.
- During any and all excursions to 'Valuetown'.

People who wear poker room clothing at a casino are usually fish.

I wear PS gear to work all the time. It's comfortable and convenient, imo.

It's fine by me if they would only wash their poker room clothing more often. Or wear deodorant, use breathmints, etc.

I had Howard Lederer's face silk screened on the front of a dozen WalMart tightie-whities but I don't think it makes me gay because I never wear them when I play poker.

Be honest, you're secretly angling for a transfer to Marketing and think that by sucking up to the Branding people you can get it :P

man are some people uptight. live and let live. I don't order (and therefore wear) poker gear but my panties aren't in a knot if somebody else does. They are enthusiastic about their hobby - good.

Are they just a$$holes or are they "allowed" to wear the clothing without being sponsored ???

I'm not sponsored by Nike but I have some swoosh stuff, and I'm not trying to loko like a sponsored athlete (if you'd seen me you'd understand).

i dont own any gear and i dont think i could wear it even if i had it. ive seen guys at the casino wearing this stuff and all i think about is how big of a plug they look like and usually they are plugs. i do not want to be one of them.

Thank god.

Sometimes, I go days without hearing anyone say anything rational or intelligent or adult, and then I read a post like this.

Thanks, Bob!

I must admit, I have a Stars windbreaker that I keep in my golf bag at all times. It has come in very handy maybe ten times, and has stood up really nicely for like five years.

Otherwise, you might just as well ask me to wear a dress out in public, because I am not walking into a card room wearing poker gear.

It's sort of teh Norman Chad "no grown man should wear a jersey unless he's a professional sports figure" routine. I happen to agree with that.

I will give my answer shortly but I just wanna see what you guys think first

Yeah the nerve of people. Unless they get paid to wear that crap they should be going nekkid. I have one of those pokerstars hoodies and I wear it a lot, hardly ever when I go to the casino though.
