Poker: The Complete Guide To Poker – Learn Strategies To Dominate Poker And Texas Hold’em

Shrugs & Sad Voices:
These kinds of voices are basically acts.
For instance, whenever a player sighs or
releases an indistinct-able sound and
after that says, “I bet”, you’ll be needing
a big hand if you want to call. The

---

player who shrugs actually displays
sadness.
But why does he do that? If a player has
a weak hand then will he go all out
public and display this failure? The
answer is no. He acts this way so that
you start thinking he’s weak. Get my
point? The player would be acting and
would actually be holding a strong hand.
Therefore remember, any shrugs are
indications of strong hands.
Changes in Breathing Patterns:
This unconscious yet extremely clever
tells is one of the most widely used in
poker, not to mention one of the
strongest. If you’re positioned near your
opponent, you’ll most likely be able to

---

accurately figure out this tell. But don’t
worry, as with the passage of time you’ll
be able to filter out his breathing right
across the table.
The key over here is that players who
possess strong hands become excited
quite easily and star breathing faster. On
the other those who bluff are usually
disguising themselves and in the process
of becoming rock-hard, stop breathing
entirely, fearing that any movement
would trigger a calling reflex.
Misdirected Bets:
A misdirected bet is undoubtedly an act.
If the action is carried out in a three-way
manner then know that your opponent is
nervous about the player that appears to

---

be the most powerful. If you have the
strongest hand, then you are the main
target.
But what if the opponent starts staring
down and directing his attention towards
someone who isn’t actually a threat? If
the players starts aiming his bets
towards that player then you have just
witnessed a misdirected bet. And you on
the other hand have every right to go,
“What about me”!
The misdirected bet usually means that
the player is trying to convince you that
you aren’t his biggest problem and he’s
more worried about the player than you.
The player is well aware that you’re the
strongest but still does this to confuse

---

you. You must realize this veiled threat
and shouldn’t let yourself get intimidated
into folding. If you were thinking of
calling or raising then it’s best to raise.
