For those that have played live....What are some dress codes/behavior/etc of 'bad players' that you can eyeball before they even play a hand?
If you were to walk into a room and had to ID the bad player by sight, or by observing their attitude; what attitude and dress choices scream 'I have no clue what I'm doing; you should eat me'?
My Goal: Dress the part, match the attitudes, and see if I can get better players to play recklessly against me thinking I'm a horrible player. I have no idea if this will help me, or hurt me, but it's a fun idea. Basically "Live bait".
I know, I know; I suck at poker, etc etc; but if we ignore that; and pretend I'm you; an amazing number 1 player; then what would I do to visually turn myself into bait?

What do you look like. If 60+ emphasize your age and for the first hour play pure OMC. If a pretty girl dress a little slutty; make the table think you are the girl of some guy in a bigger game that knows nothing but was told to come and given some meaningless money to sit and not be too bored while he played. In general think of what weak player type you can most easily disguise yourself.
Is female.
Stacks chips in stacks of 10.
Pulls the cards up to their chest in order to look at them (never lets the cards bend).
Never helicopters their folds or shuffles their chips.
Doesn't memorize their hand.
Has to be reminded to place their blinds.
Drinks alcohol (while playing).
Plays any 2-10 that isn't paired.
Doesn't have a backpack/headphones.
Wears sunglasses and/or the head covering of a hoodie.
Has a spectator behind them.
