My tells :)
Fast check - air.
If the opponent is on the dry board to think long and then plays the check / call, then most likely have a strong hand.
If a player makes on the river check-raise - almost always the nuts. So do not bluff, because slow-play:)
These are also kind of well known, so I sometimes use this against people.. Like I will have check\call pre-clicked if i have a REALLY strong hand (Pretending that I had check\fold clicked)
So be careful :)
Yes that is true. I seem to get a read on the persons reation time when making bets. Its just about the only way of seeing tells online. Its a good thing to watch when playing online poker.
Fast check I would say 80% of the time is a weak hand, but its good to know if the guy you are up against is a newbie or not
The fast check technique is the easiest way to get your opponents to lead themselves to the hangman. It's an obvious weak hand tell, and a great ally when you're getting really lucky with starting hands.
The one i find most prominent in micro/small stakes is the Auto-Fold/Check to a Raise pre-flop
it seems to me that when a 2 card suited flop comes down a lot of players like to min bet it when they have a flush draw
Ya the majority of what your saying is a good reason to focus on betting after a decent pause every hand. If your having to pass up your pre decided time its most likely a hand you should just fold and live to fight another day. Always betting after 6 seconds or whatever time you choose helps you trick people by fast checking at least it seems to work for me... after a long heads up match of close timed reactions, a fast check gets me alot of bets after flopping big.
fast check normally is a sign that they dont have anything but it really just depends on the player. I play all my hands totally different and u never know if i got crap or the nuts. i normally min raise with good hands though cause they never see it coming. i cant really say much though as im down money lol.
