Poker Tells that Say “I Have a Good Hand!”

* Acting Uninterested in a Hand While Still in It
This is usually a sign of a strong hand. The player is pretending that hes not excited about his cards but he is.

* Shaking Hands
During a hand, if you notice a players hands are shaking as she places her bet, she probably has gotten a really, really good hand. Perhaps the nuts.

* Rapid Breathing
Some players can control the shakes, but it’s harder to control the automatic heart-racing that comes when you see pocket aces or hit the flop really hard. If you can see a player’s chest visibly rising and falling, they have an excellent hand

* Sighing and Shrugging
If a player makes a show of sighing or shrugging, and says things like Oh, I guess Ill call, or even Why am I calling? he probably is overacting and is trying to hide a big hand.

* Glancing at Chips After Looking at Hole Cards
When a player looks down and sees strong hole or pocket cards, she may glance over at her chips to see just how much she can bet.

Poker Tells that Say “I Have a Weak Hand!”

* Staring Down Other Players
If an opponent is staring you down, hes trying to represent strength. Usually though, he has a weak hand he might have something, but its something that can be beaten or drawn out on.

* Holding Breath
Often, inexperienced players will hold their breath if they are bluffing.

Poker Tells that Say “I Have a Drawing Hand.”

* Checking Hole Cards After a Flop
If the flop shows the possibility of giving someone a flush or straight draw, watch for people re-checking their hole cards. Theyre checking to see if they have a piece of it whether that black Ace was a spade or a club. The player doesnt have the flush or straight at that point, because if they did, they wouldnt have to check, but she is seeing if she has a draw to it.

* Taking a Long Time Before Calling a Bet
If a player looks into the pot and seems to be doing some calculating in his head, he probably is. Hes most likely figuring out the pot odds to see if its worth it to try and catch the cards he needs to complete his drawing hand.

A final note: more experienced players may give off false tells, so the first thing to read about other players is if theyre novices or pros.

  2. People actuslly stare longer at weaker hands pre flop they tend to protect their strong hands by quickly flipping them back over. Just like when someone stares at a flop it usually means they missed and someone who quickly looks away is trying to seem disinterested with their monster hand.
