Default Re: Movements at the Poker Table..

go to caro's website, mcu.com or whatever...google it. he has some of his video's there. the thing about facial/body expression is that it's universal...his book may be a little dated, but the tells are all the same.

just work on consistency, i try to do the same. if any of your preflop play is inconsistent, someone may pick up on it "ie, snapping of cards as guy checks his cards."

I like to look up, wink, and then look down at my cards again. This could be bad though.

just do what i do, pick your nose or do something blatantly obnoxious to get them to bust that staredown and possibly even smile. talk him down, make him laugh...i did that tonight..some dude bet aggressively into me while i held top pair bad kicker..i got hime laughing as he tried to look all serious..as soon as he busted out laughing i knew he had dogxxxx and went all in. he folded.

Nice play.

Staredowns really are obnoxious, but I can totally ignore it if necessary. I usually wear sunglasses and because my eyes are covered, you know, its some sort of shield. Most of the time I'll stare 'em right back in the face without flinching for a few before I act. I've also noticed in a couple of new games I've played in (meaning with different people) most aren't even looking. They're busy acting or staring down or something.
