Tells

[Talking Poker]

Agreed.

ESPECIALLY when someone is trying to come off as loose/reckless with their name. Those are more often than not the solid/tight players. Not as many wild players think to call themselves Rocks.

Does anyone else ever try to intentionally show tells like this online to try to trick other players. Like purposefully using the auto buttons or betting very quickly to try to show more strength on a bluff, or stalling before you check or call when you're slowplaying a hand to try to show more weakness. It's something I try every so often, and if you try it at the right table it can pay off more than you'd probably expect.

The Online 'Tells' list I am working on is hit and miss unless you really get to know the players you are up against, this is were keeping notes on players you meet is so important.

The Names being used as a 'Tell' sounds strange but actually does work quite well, allthough I am finding The name 'Tell' only seems to actually work on very small cash tables.

'Tells' are what you interprate as a strenghth or weakness and other players will have read someones actions more than likely different, but any info you can use to some advantage to your game should be used including keeping notes on what you think may be a 'Tell' on a player.

Yes, I use the auto-play buttons to my advantage all the time.
