Back in the 90s, Mike Sexton showed up at the WSOP Main Event in a tuxedo. Lots of players have worn suits for it. But, those are live games, not online.
A year or so ago, as a joke I wrote a story about someone playing online poker in a bathrobe. But, the question keeps coming back to me: do players really do that? I mean it really is anonymous (other than our Player name unless we reveal it ourselves) and unseen, isn’t it? My usual uniform for online poker is exercise pants and a sweatshirt in cool months or T-shirt in warm months. Can you tell us what you’re wearing without embarrassing anyone? No pictures, please, just verbal descriptions.
I’m not in the game unless I’ve changed out of my pajamas and into my regular clothes–generally jeans or leggings and a t-shirt or sweatshirt depending on the weather. I even put on my earrings to play! It’s a luck-bringing ritual.
I either wear my lucky toga or cowboy hat and boots with my Spongebob Squarepants boxers and a Metallica tank top. On rare occasions, i will wear my Royal Canadian Mounted Police costume, which I have personalized by adding a large pink ostrich feather to the hat.
As Jan has pointed out, proper attire is very important!
Old cargo shorts and flip flops, no top. I wear a grungy baseball cap since my computer is by a window facing southwest and the sun is fierce even with my curtains drawn. I live in a tropical country and it’s hot all the time. If somebody comes to the door I throw on a t-shirt. I frequently get up to look at the Caribbean out the window.

nothing like very comfortable clothes to sit down for an enjoyable game of poker…tee shirt, shorts, sweats if its cold outside, but let me start losing and I will empty out the closet until I find some combination that will change my luck
