Today’s Poker Games Are A Lot Tougher
Just about every player has read dozens of books, watched online pros dissect their play and have played hundreds of thousands of hands, if not more.
Even though I started playing poker on the Internet, that didn’t stop me from having success in live games.
I knew the odds, played position well, adjusted to my opponents, read betting patterns effectively and knew when to apply pressure and bluff profitably. I’d play a hand. I had read all the books.
The bad ones like “Poker tells for dummies”, the “Ultimate Guide to Poker Tells” and other atrocious ones like Howard Lederer “Tells” All and Phil Hellmuth’s Million $ Secrets To Bluffing & Tells.
I also read the “good” ones like Mike Caro’s Book of Poker Tells and Joe Navarro’s Read ‘Em and Reap: A Career FBI Agent’s Guide to Decoding Poker Tells.
The tells in this book were awesome in the 1980s and 1990s, but with the profound education of poker players these days, many of the tips in the book are rarely, if ever, seen at the table.
Right? My Big Aha Moment…
I studied lie detection techniques from the U.S. Marshals, the CIA and the FBI.
And I trained myself to spotting micro facial expressions using specialized software that emulate emotions in 1/25th of a second.
Reading books, watching video training, using software, and also speaking with world-class psychologists and law enforcement professionals.
I also published a best-selling poker book and contributed to the Two Plus Two Monthly Magazine.
People move all the time, they twitch and make thousands of facial expressions every day.
Studies are published every month on human behavior, and there is now scientific proof that certain gestures or facial expression have a unique meaning in the right situation.
Poker has both of these.
And big time.
And no matter how hard we all try to keep a poker face. I’ve checked : 2 FBI Lie Catching Techniques And What They Mean To Poker Players
As poker players, we seek liars every hand we play in. HOW SUBTLE BODY SHIFTS CAN BETRAY BLUFFERS “Body language” is the study of body movements and subtle shifts.
Like the hands, arms, torso and the head. Since these are the most visible at the table, as a poker player you must understand what subtle movements can mean. WHY PLAYERS WHO DON’T WEAR SUNGLASSES MAKE A HUGE MISTAKE.
Research has shown time and time again that the face is the most genuine part of our bodies. The face simply doesn’t lie.
Forget about putting on a poker face. From the FBI Bulletin:
As poker players, we seek liars every hand we play in. Poker Tells Are Money Makers When You Know What To Look For…
Josh’s face betrayed him completely.
Josh flashed a microexpression of contempt.
I pick up tells like this EVERY TIME I PLAY POKER.
There is a HUGE misconception in the poker world about the accuracy of physical tells. Many players dismiss tells because a player can show a tell and be strong, while another player with the same tell will be weak.
It depends.Well the same goes for poker tells.
One single twitch or facial expression can mean lots of things.
Since winning that tournament in Las Vegas, friends and fellow players have come to me asking me to help them out with reading poker tells.
So ever since that day, I’ve helped players with my articles in Two Plus Two Magazine, my blog posts on this site and interviews on My articles published in Two Plus Two Magazine.various poker radio shows.
By helping these players, I started to notice some patterns.
