Chapter 6: Reading Your
Opponent
Poker is a great game that involves
nerves, strategy and complete mental
concentration. Most people think that
having a great strategy is all that is
required to win a poker game but the
truth is one cannot win if he/she doesn’t

There are two types of players who are
sitting on a poker table. One, who are
unaware that the other person might be
reading their “tell signs” and the other
ones who are completely aware of the
other player noticing them; these are

“actors” 
who 
deliberately
provide false signs to the other player as

determine what he’s doing and why he’s
doing it. Players usually act because
poker puts them in unchartered territory
where every action can have different
consequences that can be extremely
difficult to judge. Most newbies in this
art usually go about acting the opposite

like they’re weak and when they’re
weak they act strong.
No need to worry about this too much,
all of this is given in the 10 signs given
below which would greatly help you get
a win in a game of poker.
