Post your favorite live tells here
Tonight's Canterbury 15/30 session got me thinking about some of the hilarious tells that one can experience while playing live poker. I have many that I enjoy, but for the purposes of this thread I will share one that I saw several times tonight from the same jackass. It is the "I-am-trying-to-pass-a-kindey-stone" face as they 4bet the river with the stone nuts. What's one of yours?

Re: Post your favorite live tells here
It's as old as Caro's book, probably older, but the shaking hands thing always tells me what I need to know. I'm not much of a "tells" player, but hands have a way of letting out one's most inner secrets. Always watch the hands.

Friday night at Commerce 20/40 I open UTG with KK and it gets folded to an aggressive CO who 3-bets, the BB comes along and I cap that [censored]. The flop comes 8-high. The BB checks, I bet, the CO raises, the BB folds, I 3-bet and the CO now says "oh, I see you're just showing off for your friends" and calls. That was his tell that let me know he had 88 or AA. I took the cheap line to showdown and got shown AA.

I love when kids are wearing sunglasses and peek back at their holecards when the board comes 2flush.
The grimacing, I see that more than ANYTHING. |

I love the bet twice as much as I'm allowed to on the flop in a limit game.
ex. Opening for $6 in a $3/$6 game |
