Moist Reliable Online Tell Ever
 

When playing a NL cash game (possibly in tournaments), you make a sizable bet, and your opponent thinks forever. Then he raises. He has the goods. Always.

The pause bet is the most useful weapon in limit poker. People ALWAYS fall for it thinking they've picked up some amazing tell.

Of course it totally gives your hand away to a thinking player, but hopefully they'll just think your connection was laggy.

I'd have to say the best tell in online poker is a pause call, especially from a fish or calling station. Keep value betting...

[/ QUOTE ]That's what I want to know. Can't you take the "pause" away from each of those tells and get the same read?

I don't think online tells exist in limit poker.
