How about in a live game. It creates certain image that your opponents won't soon forget.

If acting strong indicates weakness and acting weak indicates strength, I'd have to put such an opponent on a bluff, though I'd be candidly afraid to call his hand. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Even more afraid to collect the chips. That is definitely a tell; you know they are playing King/Jack-offsuit.

Horrible advice.

In limit, how can you not call 8:1, 7:1 or even 6:1 on the flop with a rainbow gutshot on an unpaired board? You have 2 more betting rounds of double bets to make up the difference with implied odds if you hit.

"You can't call nothing with nothing"

Pretty much if you know someone is trying to buy the pot and you have rags, you dont call them.

To add to the above, the money saving concept that started me to becoming a consistent winner (in home games) is that "You can bet with nothing, but don't call with nothing"

I can't remember where I heard it, but I always ask myself if I can scoop the pot.
