You should be thinking like this. My opponent appears to be x experiance level, x age, x attitude, in x frame of mind right now. There for it's most likely hes thinking "X" right now about his hand, He's thinking I have "X" and he's thinking that I think he as "X".

With some players you don't get past the first level. They are not thinking about anything but the two cards they hold. Better players think a level or two deeper. Not trying to get cosmic here, just don't assume everybody would play as you.
