Professional poker player Annie Duke. Eye contact may be a sign that a player is trying to disguise a weak 🍋 hand.
A tell in poker is a change in a player's behavior or demeanor that is claimed by some to give 🍋 clues to that player's assessment of their hand. A player gains an advantage if they observe and understand the meaning 🍋 of another player's tell, particularly if the tell is unconscious and reliable. Sometimes a player may fake a tell, hoping 🍋 to induce their opponents to make poor judgments in response to the false tell. More often, people try to avoid 🍋 giving out a tell, by maintaining a poker face regardless of how strong or weak their hand is.
Examples [ edit 🍋 ]
A tell may be common to a class of players or unique to a single player. Some possible tells include 🍋 leaning forward or back, placing chips with more or less force, fidgeting, doing chip tricks, displaying nervous tics or making 🍋 any changes in one's breathing, tone of voice, facial expressions, direction of gaze or in one's actions with the cards, 🍋 chips, cigarettes or drinks.[citation needed]
An underlying rule to many tells is: "weak means strong, strong means weak." Players who hold 🍋 weak poker hands attempt to convince other players at the table that they are strong: staring down an opponent, throwing 🍋 chips down forcefully into the pot in an effort to discourage others from calling. Players who hold strong hands tend 🍋 to try to disguise their hand as being weak. They attempt to fly under the radar by being a passive 🍋 player at the table - not making direct eye contact, softly tossing the chips in, being friendly and talkative. They 🍋 are deliberately trying not to come across as intimidating, so as to entice a call.
