Re: Tells
Other tells I've seen in Vegas ...
One guy who was on the draw would always mumble "shoot" (except it wasn't shoot, replace the oo with i) each street when he didn't hit it.
Another guy on a missed draw with a 3 flush on board with him holding the Ace drawing to the nut flush at the end would say ... Do you know where the Ace is? (I've seen this twice online too). This was always with two on the flop and the turn making the 3rd flush card on the board. Oh, all 3 of them (live guy and the two online) bluffed the flush when checked to on the river.
One guy in a home game would always grab his money jar and shake it while staring at you saying something like let's go, or want to raise me, etc. in an animated way. Always meant he was bluffing. (this was a very low stakes 25 cent limit stud game).
An "act" I've used in Vegas - The stumbling drunk. Order a beer and a whiskey every time the waitress comes around. Pretend to drink the beer but don't. Go to the bathroom a lot (you've been drinking afterall) and pour out the beer into the toilet, use the whiskey as cologne for that drunken alcoholic smell. Slur speech. Talk a lot. Now they won't notice you hardly play a hand as you're talking a lot. And your monsters will get called down by people with Ace high! [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
