When Do You Look at Your Cards?

OldDog456 · Nov 9, 2016

I wait until it is my turn, unless I am giving a fake tell.

bstest · Nov 9, 2016

I look at them whenever I want, right away, wait a little, or wait til my bet. Most tables I play at have good players, the way I like it, dead pan faces, or fake tells are the norm. Nothing to learn from watching. I let the players represent their hands as play goes on, those are the only "tells" that I trust

Immediately right after I recieve if I am not busy with many tables or tough decisions on other tables

Bogdan Pyts · Nov 9, 2016

I look directly, the benefit consists that so far before me make the decision, I have time to deliberate as how further to arrive

greek132 · Nov 9, 2016

i look when is my turn most of the times

Reelmookey · Nov 9, 2016

i look when i have both real quick then i watch the table look at theirs to try catch any tells on other players

I prefer to wait until it is your turn to act

It depends on my position at the table. Obviously, when under the gun, you must look quickly to keep the game moving. If I am in the big blind, I take my time and look around, but usually look before the last minute. As others have mentioned in this thread, the longer you wait, the more chance everyone is watching you. So the question is; do you get more info watching others, or can they get more info watching you?

I first take a look at my cards quickly and then start watching the moves of opponents then. I see you are giving raise, who is limping. But in general always look my letters first.

Thats exactly what I do aswell. Wait until its your turn, that way you can get the most information from the other guys

Alex Sentsov · Dec 23, 2016

I try to take cards after the other players. Watch the emotions. Hide their emotions.

wlad20082009 · Dec 23, 2016

Usually look , more time for decision-making .:stupido:

pescaofish · Dec 23, 2016

First look the reaction of every player as they look at their cards, finally when is my turn I look at my cards but still keep watching reactions from the rest of the players.

That first reaction is very important to play in live Poker. :deal:

Prefer to wait for their turn, and then only to watch their cards. But sometimes there is a desire to go all-in without seeing my cards - but that's another story

.

Senneville · Dec 23, 2016

When is my turn to act. First: for missing any information and Second: Is for make sure my decision is about how and who raise the pot and who limp at wich position. Hand can my hand call that hand or not . Thats it for me.

teepack · Dec 23, 2016

i look at my first card as soon as i get it and then look at my second as soon as i get it. then i watch the others amd start thinking about what i am going to do so when it is my turn i act quickly. i believe this accomplishes a few things. it gives me time to think about my move without eberyone looking at me. it speeds up play, which is good. and if i do give away any tells, then people won't see them because i have already looked at my cards.

Tanvir Mahmud · Dec 23, 2016

every time i see my cards i try to give a different type of reactions so that other players get confused . and it works

vitja0101 · Jan 3, 2017

immediately handed out usually look

Leko · Jan 3, 2017

When cards are dealt, and after when is my turn

skavenger · Jan 3, 2017

Could you give any hints what kind of reaction you're looking for when you do this?

0546474 · Jan 3, 2017

always different !!! Do not know even what it depends on))) never really thought about it))))

miric007 · Jan 3, 2017

If you play at multiple tables at once decide whether to play the hand or not, because I do not like to play at multiple tables because I can not follow the game opponents.

Ivab · Jan 3, 2017

All right. Their cards always have time to look. It is better to study the reaction of competitors. The knowledge of human psychology in poker is very important.

depending on position. look at first card. if no $ invested, card less than 10, I wont even look at second. fold at my action. hope someone catches the action. gives more tight empression.

Shakes · Jan 3, 2017

I dont look at my cards until its my turn to act.
