Re: Is \"cute betting\" a tell?
In live play against my friends I bet odd amounts like 205 and 215. I do this to discourage them from calling. . .
If I think they are on the boarder line of folding and I wouldn't mind them folding I put this weird bet out there. I don't know why it deters them. Perhaps having to collect the exact number of chips to call is too troublesome, but say if I bet and even 200 they could just easily throw two 100's out there without thinking. That moment you make them think is enough for them to change there minds. This play backfired on my once though, because I bet 95 and he went to fold but then paused and threw a 100 in there and took out a 5. This exchange was simple and I think it helpped him call. Just my two cents. . . |
