Re: help settle debate on timing tells
 

I usually think timing tells are what they are in NL. Taking a lot of time equals weakness, its usually not some mindgame by your opponent. However, what was probably taking your opponent so long in that hand was that he was deciding if tens or A7 is worth stacking off with, and so even though he banked on turn he'll probably make a relatively quick crying call on the river.

Re: help settle debate on timing tells
 

in general i only trust quick tells. A long pause can mean soooo many different things that it seems like theres no point in trying to figure out what. In general though i find that it means strength (although once again, i'd never use it as a reason to make one play or another, just a general observation).
