I have a big fat online tell that i've just noticed...
I'm not one to chat, for the most part. sometimes, if there's a big fish in the game, i'll make a point to chat with him a lot and become his new best freind as i try to take his money, but other than that, the only thing i use the chat box for is to say "ZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz" when some slow-ass is killing my hourly. ...and i just noticed that i only do it when i have a hand, usually, a big one. so i carefully watched my play for a couple of hours today and i don't think there's any associated symptoms- i take the same ammount of time to bet/call/fold/raise, etc... it's just the ZZZZZZZZZZZZz thing. hmmmm... i will no longer be saying that, or anything else for a while. I doubt that any of my opponents have been attentive enough to pick up on it, but who knows? you guys ever noticed your own tells? you think anyone's been able to profit from them? |

I always check to see if the person who is impatient is in the hand; seems like a reasonably reliable tell that they have a hand; if they planned to muck, they could use the autofold button and go back to surfing pr0n.

Bob, I think I've been at tables with you. Or someone you need to sue for copyright infringement.

Yep, I've always paid attention to this. Sometimes it's just an impatient LAG who loves action, but I find it mostly comes from players still in the hand and are probably itching to bet or raise.

Don't stop, just start doing it when you have crap and are itching to fold. It really annoys me when people take ages, gah, although it annoys me most when I'm stuck like 75BB in an hour and I just want to play some hands.
