interesting you bring that up, I wonder if these pro players hate the fact that there play is filmed and tells can be broken down on film.
for me it's different in limit versus no limit, I look for hesitation and the length of time to respond to bet. |

i think a lot of people give info away with their eyes. i always watch for reactions and the look in the eyes of people when they first look at their cards... |

there are 2 dozen different kinds of tells...from eyes to mouth, to hands to posture and even speech pattern..
The trick to getting tells is watching the player. A tell may not help within the 1st hour, it's the time logged on the table, and seeing how reliable the tell is that makes a tell work.
Also, against a better player, they try to send "fake" tells, so you must read into many different things...the basic rule of thumb is that marks want the opposite of their action...strong means weak, weak means strong....but with the better players, sometimes strong means strong....I've taken much more money off a table by being honest with the players, I had a nut straight, and another player was worried I had 2 pair, I reasured him I did NOT have 2 pair, he immediately raised, and I put him all in...but it depends on your table lineup. since lineups in a casino are constantly revolving, you must ALWAYS be paying attention...even when not in the hand....
