Poker Face

Do you have any tricks that you like to play to try and fool people? Personally, when I've got a bad hand I'll sometimes raise the corner of my mouth as though I'm starting to smile, just to try and get a few people to fold.

I also raise my eyebrows and purse my lips a little when I've got a great hand, as it makes me look frustrated

Hey, that's clever. Make them think you have a good hand but really you don't. That's a good one.

A norwegian tv show is named Poker Face. And NONE of the players there could fool another player. So that strategi have to be really hard!

Like I said in the other topic - I don't have much of a poker face, I just have a 'strategy' - I go all in, that's what my sister in law does as well. She tricked me out of a game once by doing that! ARGHH!!

I can't think about things like that. I should work on my poker face a bit more, but I have other things to be worried about. I try and maintain the same face all the time.

i think, for a winner, to be a winner , is not only by getting the right set of cards, its actually how smart can you be in using your expressions. Its better to keep a blank look, and let the others keep guessing till the end

For some reason - When I have a monster hand and the person who's in the hand thinks im bluffing, I start to laugh like a little schoolgirl - It's so gay.

But for some reason they think they picked up a tell on me and always call

I usually do make a smile when I have a good hand. When I see someone smile I think they are bluffing. It just sticks out too much. I have beaten many people because they are trying to bluff. I make sure when I spend money. Money comes back to my pocket.

I use the same tactics, I pretend I'm suddenly happy as If I have a good hand whereas I'm about to loose. Most of the time the people infront fold and I think it's great, one of my friends was never fooled and after a lot of blackmail and pummeling he finely admitted that when I am trying to trick people I blink extra fast and it's a give away so now I'm extra careful.
