I was playing in a home game the other day (came 2nd out of 8... AQs < A10o) and afterwards was told by one person that was playing that I'm quite emotional when playing, apparently I'm very talkative in spots (when I want a call) and then silent in others. Personally, I hadn't noticed this myself but will trust their judgement.

Now, I know this... next game, I'm going to deliberately reverse it! False tells, fuck yeah! :f_love:

I don't mean tilting btw, I'm pretty good at avoiding that, I just mean playing cool in the middle of hands etc.

Just thought I'd ask people here how you stay "cool" when playing live? Do you do a Helmuth face-cover or what not? Do you strip naked when you get pocket Aces to celebrate?

I know there are probably articles on this, but I wanted to ask people's own experiences and wonder if there are any funny stories out there!

I don't generally talk at all whilst in any pots.

I will just stare at the Pot, burn cards or board, occasionally looking at Villain (Usually when the Flop, turn or river come down)

Well yea, 15 shots might be a bit much, but couple of them doesn't hurt. :f_biggrin:
