Pokerface ala Hollywood.
Just wear some of those Guy Fawkes masks at the table. They will do the trick much cheaper. With this botox thing, the only one making a profit wil be the doc.

This would be such a stupid PR thing. I found it really funny when Phil Laak dressed up like an old man in the Main event some years ago-which was later permitted-but this botox thing goes too far
anyways would love to see Gus hansen with a Botox face
The pros are too taft to need this. I cant imagine to go the plastics for increse my pokerface visage. I agree with probbably PR thing and stupidness in it
