Live Poker Tells/ Reads

LARSON7

Hey everyone!

Question for all the live players out there.

What kind of reads/ tells do you look for live?

When I first started playing used to think it would be a lot easier to get tells live than online.

In the last year I've only played live 3 times and have to say didn't find it easy getting reads, unless it was something really obvious!

When playing live, what kind of things is best to look out for?

The super-interested lean across the felt when your opponent picks up a big hand is a fun one to look out for

Made some redicules calls with practising this with friends has helpped in casinos against less experianced players

When they actually bet and put out there chips look for any signs of hesitation for example if they put the chips out and then tidy them up, even just taking long bringing back there hand after putting out chips i think i remember somone saying its consuion way of trying to stop your players calling straight away just gives that tiny bit of time to make them think. so this can somtimes mean a bluff

if a player counts his stack before making a bet can normally mean he's looking to see how much he has left if he loses the current hand so can mean weakness 

If a player starring at he board quite a bit, can again be a  consuion thing of trying to find a hand that they don't have.

If the flop comes down and you see a player sigh or really look fed up may even little tut. again unexperianced players with this, but that means he's LOVES that flop 

there are few videos you can watch on youtube that shows some good one's but these are some i've found have helpped in spots.
