Default Re: The Pulsating Vein Tell

I have more tells than Marcel Marceau...all on purpose. I'm always acting a little bit. Take the classic situation. You have the nuts and you move in. What do you do then?

I bet with a bit of a micro shake in my hand. I bet strong, pulling the chips way out there. I swallow and put my hand over my mouth and refuse to make eye contact, at first. Then, if my opponent picks up his cards or looks as if he is about to fold, I may say, "Let me have this one and I will let you have the next one." I honestly don't know why this exact phrase seems to work. If they want to talk now, I am ready. My behavior during their decision process keeps changing until they find one near their house. Did I ever tell you about people who chew gum? Back to the Masters original query, is all this world-class coffee housing ethical??
