if you happen to make a final table i challenge you to not wear any poker sites gear. just wear what you normally wear. flame away. after reading all the responses i will wear one patch for money but i will not take it overboard. as for my online scores i dont play much online more live. gl to all at the tables.

I understand what you're getting at op. I don't want to promote any company in the world or anything at all either. Still, a lot of cash for a smallish patch on your shirt...doesn't sound so bad.

because in relation to what you are making at the final, i would rather not be a sellout -

at least a couple people agree with me. my main point is the sites dont care about there players until we do something impressive such as a final table therefore i will never ever wear anything by them no matter what they will give cause the simple fact is they are basically using the players to advertise. i aint mad at them its smart on their end bt i will not sellous cause i will make a final table one day and i am going to rep pocketfives and all the people who have the same dream as me. good luck this year peace out.

LOL it's not like you're being asked to promote smoking as a healthy activity
Take the $, laugh at the absurdity of getting $ to put that patch on, and then blow the money at craps. -
If I was to play an WSOP event or any big buyin tourney and make a televised FT then id wear a stars patch and a pocketfives tshirt thats good enough for me

it would be selling myself out. it would be different if they say they are going to sponser me for a year or so. but to wear there gear for one day i wouldnt do. as for the 1000 dollar tourney its my dream to make the final table and beforre i can do it i have to dream it.so gl to all who play.

Unless you buy in with your own money I think you have to wear the gear of whatever site you qualified through. I will be at the Irish Poker Open and I'm pretty sure I'm required to wear something that has Cake poker on it.

I agree, free money is overrated. I'd rather work at mcdonalds for about 12,000 hours than get six figures for wearing a patch.
