The Pulsating Vein Tell

[UATrewqaz]

The ability to stay calm even when in a very stressful situation (such as a huge bluff) is a poker skill.

When I'm playing live and my heart begins to race I'm VERY aware of it. I try my hardest to control my motions/breathing and hope my opponents don't notice.

Heck the ability to protect your hole cards properly is also a poker "skill" when you think about it.

If your opponent holds his cards so poorly you can see them over and over, then I don't find taking advantage of that wrong either.*

*Note: This is different from you ACTIVELY trying to see his cards.
