Lets talk about what a tell is in poker terms. Tells are little things that poker players do that gives away the strength of their hand. Things like a nervous twitch of your hand or a tapping of your foot, or let’s say you start humming when your hand is strong or you start rubbing your hand on your face when it’s weak. This is the type of reaction the experienced or even pro poker players look for in their opponents. A little tip to remember, usually when your opponent acts like he has a strong hand its usually weak, and when he acts meek he usually has a monster hand. This is what I have noticed against people who haven’t been playing poker too long.
Always remember, play at one speed – not too fast, but not too slow. Even if you know what your decision is going to be, if you’re going to fold or bet, let your opponent sweat a little bit. This may payoff during the game. Wearing Sunglasses is a good idea during a game of poker – you can see into a man’s soul through his eyes. (sorry I got carried away ![]()
Sometimes a new players eyes will open really wide when he has a good hand.
These are the types of tells the experienced players look for, so remember to just play calm, try not to show much emotion if you have a good hand OR a shitty one.
And I hope to see you at the tables
