I think using reads in limit hold'em is very important. I'm not talking about 'I should fold my overpair here because villian is shaking a bit so therefore he must have a set' but more like 'I have never seen this guy raise without atleast two pair... I guess my top pair on the river in this small pot isn't very good so i fold'.

OP: Bet turn. No reason to believe you are beat yet. If somebody raises then I would fold. I'd also tend to bet a blank river for value.

i agree

what i meant was reads where you look at a guy, conclude hes strong because hes staring back at you or whatever, and fold

Tells are rampant at this level. However, Chino's original point had some merit. In the end, don't act on a tell unless you're sure it has meaning. The only exception I have to that rule is when a noobie raises and I see him breathing very, very hard.
