Ever wonder why? Nope, it's not just Vegas fever. It isn't Fashion Week either. Those items are a strategy, employed by players of various levels, to avoid being "read" by experienced players.
Theory has it that some talented players can pick up on the slightest signs from opponent's faces and body language in general, your "tells", in order to unmask the worth of their hands and leave them vulnerable. So, if you're not sure about how cool you can be at the poker table, about how well you can keep a poker face (no connection with Lady Gaga), then by all means, wear hat and glasses. If you're very unsure, heck, wrap yourself in bandages like the invisible man.
Be creative. But above all, be on your best game with all the strategies you can muster. And if someone bothers you about it, you'll at least have the comfort of knowing you're doing it to improve your odds at the table, where the action really is.
