You dont think that her feigning disinterest when the flop arrives helps Sammy's decision. And ur right, as a side note her play was shite. Why is she so afrai to give a free card?
Yes its clear she likes her hand because of the physical tells but that's in conjunction with the fact she is a TAG who 3 bets the flop into pre flop raiser who is still to act again.
If she had carried on as normal do you think Sammi calls? lol. He would take the betting pattern and realise he is beat, again tells are your tie-breaker, use them in marginal spots. If the tells is telling you something different to the betting pattern, go with the pattern.
Tells.
Depends on the quality of competition imo. If your competitors arent all that shrewd then i place a lot of faith in them. The shaky hand, look at chips Caro teachings.
But tbh im tired and am fed up debating James, uv been on one today. I agree with you that against strong competitors betting patterns are the best tools for reading hands. You win.
