Weakness is often indicated by...
- Distance from cards. Is your opponent hunched forward or leaning back in their chair. Pshycologically this tells you how attached they are to the cards they are holding. However, this is better as a history read when compared to their default posture and cards they have previously shown
- Face Touching. This is a common pacifying gesture and usually indicates weakness
- Smiling. A nervous smile is a good tell because your opponent is trying to establish a good relationship with you and thus wants to avoid conflict. Something he wouldn't do with Aces.
These are the 3 main ones I use but really you need some history to back it up and like others have said...it wouldn't be a good foundation for a decision.
Because if I had the Aces against a good player I would be leaning back, scratching my nose and nervously smiling for all I was worth.

Although I value your opinion, I'm going to have to check with the man from Del Monte. If he says yes, then I'm happy.

I'd be folding wouldnt really be worried about   as i dont think they would have pushed all in so early but i think ak could be in the hole and putting all in they do need to see all five community cards,but if there had been a standard raise before with 1 or 2 callers then i would call as i would be thinking at least 1 ofthe others would be holding an Surely thou arest joking? If you think he has AK you should call 100% of the time mate..really..you should. |

Maybe im just too much of a gambler put quite a few ppl in this thread have said that they would pass even if they thought he had AK. To me that sounds stupid or am i stupid for thinking thats stupid!?

I'd never pass if I thought they had AK.
If I thought they had AA I would pass, but I think you'd both have to be very nitty for that to be the case.
