Most of the poker pros started to play poker live, because online poker was not so big in that time. Probably everyoane knows the first feeling when you played poker for the first time, especcialy if you had a strong hand. Here are some advices that will help you to make the right deciosion when playing live poker.
WATCH THE EYES
Many players can not help themselves and stare at big hole cards, so their lenght of time peeking is longer. You can also ask questions about a player's hand, and watch their eyes. People rarely look someone stright in the eyes while lying.
FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
While we may be able to tell something from a player's facial expression, be careful not to over analyze. In many cases the cards can tell you just as much. Don't count on catching a key facial tic, or a pattern in someone's cookie eating.
SHAKES
If you see a player's hands tremble when he places his chips or holds his cards, there's a chance he has a monster hand. He is trying to control his emotions, but failing. Fold, unless you are realy confident in your hand.
STARE DOWN
If you see a player staring directly at you , relax. In this case, he ussualy wants you to believe he's got a strong hand, but doesn't. There's always exceptions, but do not be afraid to call or raise.
