Message: [QUOTE="Four Dogs, post: 7344358, member: 2668"] Observation and experience. Do the other players at the table telegraph the strength of their hand with their bet sizing? Have they shown down any bluffs? Are they passive or aggressive? Are they paying attention to the action or are they watching FIFA on their phones. Getting a read is great but it's all for nothing if you don't then know what to do with the information. That's where the experience comes in. Play a ton of hands, I mean tens of thousands of hands, and think about them. I've seen people who have played for decades and they're no better now than they were 30 years ago. They come in every day, they know everyone in the room and sit down at the table like they're in a coffee shop. You don't need a 140 IQ to be a winning player. It really is that simple. Now, if you want to crush? That takes effort! [/QUOTE]
