Draw Poker is the most exciting game in the casino. The look and feel of this game is like none other. You can sit back and relax, and focus on drawing your cards out. I learned a lot about this game while playing draw in the casinos. I believe I now have a better understanding of this game. In this article, I will discuss some tells that I have picked up on while playing draw.
- Watch the Eyes – You will notice that many players wear sunglasses when they play cards behind their head. Perhaps, they are trying to hide their eyes? If you can’t see their eyes, you will know they are trying to be inconspicuous.
- Smile – You will also notice many players that try to hide their faces at the poker table. Perhaps they have a good hand? You will notice players trying to hide their faces in order to improve their chances of a good hand. Conversely, they will open their eyes widely in an effort to conceal their good cards.
- Tracking of the Picks – If you are playing draw poker, and you learn of a player that picks up a rock too often, you can assume that this player either loves to play cards, or always has a good hand. Players like that tend to rake in a lot of money at the casinos.
- Assault Dome – If you are playing at the casino’s Assault Dome, you will notice a player who picks up many rocks early in the game. Once a rock is involved in the game, a player is more likely to throw it than be caught. You can also assume that players who are always getting picked up by the Assault Dome are not very good.
- Suggestive pictures – There are many sexy poker poses that players try to make. If they get caught, players are less likely to play revealing cards in the future. This is especially true for amateurs. If you get a sexy pose and wear it for a while, you are more likely to be noticed.
- Refrain men – A player with a provoking hand will be more likely to bet or raise. This is in reaction to a previous player. The chap with the provoking hand will likely bet or raise, trying to get along with his hand and propels him to win in the future.
- Gamble with your fingers – Many players get impatient and beat themselves up for not playing in a certain way. Every time they want a certain hand, they fidget with their chips. Perhaps they are trying to show how keen they are, or they rock back and forth with their chips. Be patient (especially in games that have action that moves around the table), and let the chips fall where they fall.
- Keep away from the stare – In the casino, there is no need to stare at other players, because they are not paying attention. Sure, they may be starring at their own hands, but they are generally paying attention to the action around them. So, for the most part, stare at the dealer, or look right into his shiny, oblong chip. Staring back at another player, or trying to look intimidating can two up your game, and can help you hide your hand when you do play a hand.
- Chipper on blackjack tables- The cupping of the hand in front of the dealer is called a “smile” and “pair” and can occur on both theproductive gems (hands) and the bonus hands (the 12. and 13. hands). The smile itselfOrigins in Juilliard, when a player greeted the dealer by curling his fingers in the shape of a big, friendly,Yeah! towards the dealer. Both hands move, but the extra fonents (the two) stay where they are. When a new player sits down, he sometimes adjusts his cupped hands in such a way that the tips of his fingers are pointing at the “pot” (the money pool). The bet, which is to win whatever this money pool, is called a choose-your-own-adjective (you would substitute the word “Choose” for “Dewapoker“). You then invent whatever hand you want, and the next player in goes by and Makes the same hand. The game always moves, but the hands don’t change. Eventually, the player with the biggest stack wins.
- Never say the word “seven” during a game. If you must say the “Seed” again, even during the kicker, it should be in the “Toast” (the initial part of the game,when the dealer subdivision should shuffle the cards). Unless you are counting cards, don’t say the “Seed”word.
- Wheeling is for amateurs.
