watching other players

[JulioYalil]

forget about tryin to get physical tells on all players at the table because by the time u finally figure it out the table will have changed. the only way to have physical tells on everyone @ the table is to have played many hrs previously with every single player.

that being said, try to concentrate at the players that r most important to u. start with whoever is to ur left. once u've got him/her pegged then move on to the one on his/her left. after that player then do the player to ur right. my point is to try to get tells on the players that act immediately after or before u. if u can't do more than 3, 4, or 5 players don't worry about it. u've already done more than everyone else at the table if it's low stakes. also understand that at low stakes the players make enough mistakes to make the game very profitable w/out ever havin to rely on physical tells at all.

Thanks for the replys. I enjoyed the article Percula, especially found the section on 6th street very true. Its not just enough to get info on the players but to be aware of the info I am giving out.

I tend to key on the most active players and the players that I initially think are weakest. I figure they are the most likely people for me to end up in a pot with, so I start there.

After that its just whoever I pick up information on, I pick it up on. I don't stress out over not getting every single player, but I get what I can, when I can.
