Sneak Peak At PokerStars Goodie Bag

[Solitare]

http://www.pokerstarsblog.com/2006/07/wsop-pokerstars-goody-bags.html

Unfortunately polo shirts are not part of the list. I think the jerseys tend to look a bit silly on anyone who is not in their 20s. Hopefully I'll find a PokerStars person who'll let me exchange for a couple of polos.

[steeser]

I think the basketball jersey will look like pure white trash.

[kevstreet]

That's awesome, I'm jealous on so many levels.

One duffel bag (top left), big enough to carry two watermelons or a medium-sized dog.

What about this? From the tournament rules.

Tournament participants may wear one item of apparel with a logo no larger than 6 square
inches in size. Harrah’s reserves the right at all times, to change the logo size limit, ban the
wearing/display of any or all logos, or to ban any apparel or other means of advertising that
contains obscene images or words or is otherwise deemed objectionable by Harrah’s.
Harrah’s also reserves the right to exclude any individual(s) acting in a disruptive or
inappropriate manner.

[runnerunner]

I am pretty sure they only enforce this at the TV table.

[mlagoo]

that soccer jersey is money. that's a lock for what i'm wearing during the tourney.

[Starfish]

I don't get this, being a walking advertisement for free. (Nothing against Stars here)

its not for free....didnt they book your hotel in exchange?

[Dunkman]

Not for free, for 1k.

[FCBLComish]

If you are a walking advertisment for Stars, you get extra money from them. If you bring a medium size dog in to Harrahs, you will probably be in trouble. Stick with the 2 watermelons.

Before being quick to judge, I would look in your own closet and see the number of t-shirts, shirts, pants, and shoes that have logos on them. You are pretty much a walking advertisement every day, the difference is you paid to wear the logos rather than getting $1K.

I'm sure thats what he was trying to say /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[sdplayerb]

I like the soccer jersey. But i do hope to get some better tshirts. a sweatshirt would be nice too.
I'm not really going to wear a letterman's jacket while playing.

[Jurollo]

I am going to feel spoiled this year, last year Empire Poker gave me 3 oversized Polos and a craptacular hat and said "Good Luck"

[mlagoo]

I saw that their wasn't a hoodie in there, which is kind of a bummer. I understand they really pump in the A/C in those rooms.

Do you know whether it is within the rules to just rock a Stars hat and have on my own hoodie?

edit: oh, and to reply to the other poster -- in exchange for rocking that sweet soccer jersey, they are putting me up in the monte carlo for a week. i'm a happy camper.

[scottjf8]

Guess I'll bring my polo's from last year to wear

[runnerunner]

Last year I wore the hat and my own G&R T-shirt and no one said anything to me. The gear looks much nicer this year, however.

[Werty83]

The hockey and soccer jerseys are definitely the way to go. A long-sleeved t-shirt or a polo would've been nice.

[Daleroxxu]

Think I'll be going with the red soccer shirt with the black and red cap for Day 1.

All I need to do now is find some red tinted sunglasses...... /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[cdutilb]

My question is if you are just a random internet qualifer how would poker stars or any site for that matter even know if you were wearng their gear?

[Daleroxxu]

I doubt they would. But do you want to risk being landed with a hotel bill for the full whack?

[TomHimself]

the black and red hat is pretty sweet imo. its prolly not fitted or flexfit /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[Daleroxxu]

If it's the same as the usual pokerstars caps then it's complete cheapo nasty garbage.

Looks like they've invested quite a bit in this new gear though, so maybe these hats are flexfit.

[Ditch Digger]

Everything looks pretty good. Now I just hope I ordered the correct size. Of course, I'm probably just going to be rocking the hat and wearing my own t shirts.

[Werty83]

Yeah I wish they were black fitted flex fits, but instead they look like they are those ones w/ the cloth strap in the back. I hate those. 50 year olds wear those.

All I can think of is the fat bowler guy wearing his Washington Wizards jersey in last years Main Event. He was wearing a white t-shirt under it.

[stereoman]

That'd be Joe Stillman (we're getting the repeats of last year's event shown here to um, whet our appetites).

[mikeymer]

this stars [censored] just strikes me as so corny... i will probably end up wearing the t-shirt with a zip up polo... I hope thats within the rules.

[Jurollo]

I am biased, obviously, but this looks pretty badass, I have a letterman jacket already with black arms, so the tan is nice. But after the ME for those of you (this includes me) that want something cool to hang up on a wall as a memento from playing this, the hockey jersey would look very cool framed, since it also says "WSOP TEAM 2006" on the bottom, you could hang it in a bar type room or wherever the Football and other sports are watched in the house. Just a little idea for those of you into that sorta thing.

The bags from last year had everyone's name (and "Team PokerStars 2005") embroidered onto them; do you know if that's happening again this year? It sounds strange, but I consider the bag my momento/keepsake from last year. When I've shown it to friends and family, they're much more impressed with the bag than anything inside of it (again, mostly because my name was stitched into it) -- but it must be noted last year's apparel consisted of mostly of standard polo shirts and what not, and not hockey/baseball/basketball jerseys. Last year did have the sort of strange-but-cool red satin baseball jacket.

[Ignignokt]

Do they have PS logo pocket squares for those players wanting to wear suits? (I would, had I made it.)

Are the contents the same in the picture in the PokerStars blog? Anything besides the jerseys -- polo, sweatshirt? It is clearly nice that the quality is high.

[Yo Adrians!]

I'll seriously pay someone for an XL Stars soccer jersey. It's just awesome. PM me if you want ...

The dildo will come in handy when it goes hand-for-hand and you need something to keep yourself entertained. Stars thinks of everything!

[Martin Aigner]

Just got my Bag, and I gotta say, I´m really impressed. They do have a special bag for Supernovas, which includes:

- A leather trolly (maybe not everyones taste, but nice anyway). Guess it´s this one: trolly (http://www.clairechase.com/MyCart/ProductDetails/Classic%20Pullman.aspx?url=/MyCart/ProductListing/Pullman.aspx)
- A leather notebook bag, of course same colour Notebook bag (http://www.clairechase.com/MyCart/ProductDetails/Compact%20Computer%20Case.aspx?url=/MyCart/ProductListing/Computer%20Carriers.aspx)
- Your choice of a bottle of Glenlivet or Wodka (now this makes the handling of an early exit from the ME way easier /images/graemlins/cool.gif )
- A lucky charm stuffed animal
- A PokerStars Baseball
- Cards from Team PokerStars (now I can go to bed with the image of Isabelle Mercier /images/graemlins/blush.gif )
- A PS-T-Shirt with "NH" written on the front and "ty" on the back
- Another T-Shirt
- A Basketballshirt
- A Baseball jersey
- 2 PS-Caps
- A PS-Hockey jersey
- A PS-Soccer jersey
- A letterman-style jacket (got a wrong size on this one. I´m XXL, and this is probably M /images/graemlins/grin.gif )
- A PS Sportsbag

So you non-Supernova-guys: Envious? /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif
