random stream of rachael's brain activity:
So my husband has become an avid viewer of the World Poker Tournement that they show on ESPN (everynight at 10pm, right before Sports Center at 11pm). I find it somewhat boring, but whatever...what I do find interesting is that they allow these gamblers to wear sunglasses AND hats...basically they could pretty much cover up their entire face and still play the game.
okay, doest that go against everthing that poker is about? i mean, i thought the POINT of the game (aside from making money...or losing, depending on how good you are), to bluff? How can these players possibly say that they are good poker players when they can hide any kind of emotion under sunglasses and hats?
PLUS, the types of sunglasses that these people wear, are the 1980's kind, that reflect everything....like a mirror. Which, again, how can those be allowed? I mean, couldn't a player look into someone's glasses and SEE the reflection of his cards when he peaks at them? I would!!!!!
Jonathon just laughs at me and says I am thinking too much..or says "thats just the way they do it." which, what kind of reason/rationalization/answer is that?????
