Here at PokerNews, we strive to bring you the most up-to-date, scientifically verified information in the poker world. During a recent lull in the action, we conducted an investigation to help answer one of the WSOP's most burning questions.

How many players are wearing sunglasses?

Based on a sample size of 40 tables, approximately 2.45 players per table have chosen to shield their eyes from the glare of the lights and the gazes of their opponents. That's about 315 players, or 27 percent of the field.

Again, these numbers are highly accurate and scientifically calculated.
