Just looking for opinions on this as I was asked to share what tells I have on my fellow players at my local card room. 

Should I tell other people or keep this info for myself??

I am a greedy bugger and I would prefer to win more money for myself, and if my "friends" can't see the tells then is that not their problem??.

I just want opinions as i am getting a lot of stick cos I am making some good coin in the cash games.

My advice - don't say a word!

One thing you can do to scare the living daylights out of some people is if you pull a big bluff on them and show.  If they make a comment, say you picked up a tell on them last time you played them and you have been waiting to see it again - and he gave it on that hand.  Absolute rubbish of course but one thing it's hard for people to recognise is the tells they give out!

Keep them to yourself

Stick often comes with making coin. I'd kill for a bit of stick at the moment. :)

Act modestly, say you have not seen tells, you just get lucky a lot.

Or even better, say you get "feelings" that you can't explain that tell you how you should play your cards.

cheers for that guys, your opinions are appreciated.

Tank do you want to know what I picked up on you last night?

keep them to yourself!

No no, keep it and punish me. Just don't tell every bugger else.

Here's another one you can have for free.

If I change the tune on my i-pod to the Indiana Jones theme when there is a large bet before me, it's because I hold pocket aces.

Tank are u playing in the Maybury this week ?

I'm busy on the Thursday and Saturday but might play the £100 rebuy on Friday night.

Do you know if it finishes on the night, or if the final of it is played on the Saturday afternoon?

the £100 re-buy isn't advertised as a 2 day thing, but there seems to be a lot of interest, hopefully I will make it to the 2nd day on the Friday and catch you then. I'm the one that looks like Quasi, I should recognise you no bother, wool around the beard!!!

What did you change it to when my Queens cracked em last night??   :D :D :D

just kidding mate.

See you Friday, good luck.

Btw Tank, thanks for the tips for online play, i am up £200 already

Good for you,

I've just had a horrible run at sit n' gos to kick off my day.

Played 12

5 bubble finishes

0 cashes

Lost 9 out 9 races eek

ouch that an icy run

I can't recall the last time I went 12-0

Turning around now, I got 2 1sts and a 2nd from the next 4.

Won't be throwing myself in the Clyde just yet.

I just bubbled for the first time today, omaha hi lo and I arsed it up big time.  BTW the max rake at wpt is £1.84 that seems fair to me.

Yeah that's a fair sterling rake.

Will you be in for the tourney on monday?

Most likely

FFS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you must NEVER EVER release information about tells (unless its me of course and I will happily buy you a beer or two ;))

More importantly, if you know that they are looking for them, thenjust make sure that you throw in the occasional reverse tell too. Particularly when you hold the nuts, do any thing at all possible to look like that brick card hit your hand. :)

Quick Question - What is a tell?  :blonde:

I saw a dog sat down playing cards wih a bunch of guys.

I said to one of the fellas, "That must be a very intelligent dog"

"Not really," he replied "Every time he gets a good hand he wags his tail"



The dog wagging his tail is a "tell" it means it tells the other players what kind of cards he holds.
Anything a player says or does at the table when they hold a particular hand is a "tell". For example, one player might breathe slower when he's bluffing, another might breathe faster, one laughs heartily when he's missed the flop perhaps. They can be very profitable if you notice them.
