 The Art of the Bluff
There are many reasons to want people to think you are an inexperienced poker player and here are some ways you can make them think that. The poker rooms host or hostess will walk you to your poker table. The people at the table will be expecting a new player and will be looking to see who they will bring over, so make sure from the moment you walk into the casinos poker room you have your gambling face on. The bluffing in poker does not start at the table it starts the minute you enter the room. They will be looking to size you up, so make sure you throw them off from the get go, this way all assumptions they make based on that first impression will be wrong. Look around the room in amazement; maybe even stumble a bit because you were looking around and not where you were going. During the game make a face when you have a bad hand, but do it just for a minute then make sure to look around the table nervously to see if anyone noticed, but do not make eye contact with them make it seem like you did not notice them. If someone did notice they will think you have a bad poker face and must be a beginner. If more then one person saw you then fold the hand. Someone who has been playing poker for any length of time would never make a mistake like that. During the game, eventually you will get a good hand, when this occurs you should start betting big and keep raising the bet, then if someone challenges you try to raise the bet past the table limit. This will make it obvious that you have very little experience in a casino. The point is that you need to win this hand, so do not start raising the bet unless you are sure you have a good chance of winning. You should make sure to have at least a full house in your hand at the time, but if you do lose the hand it also lend credibility to the illusion that you o not know what you are doing in the poker room. Make sure that after you first sit down you are playing poorly. Bet when you have nothing and stay in every hand even if all you have is a wild card. I would assume that a fish like that was just really stupid and I would look forward to taking home some of their money, and this just sets them up for you to take their cash to your bank. Other gamblers will learn a lot from you by the clothes you are wearing. If you come into the casinos poker room and sit at a texas holdem table wearing a shirt with sponsor names, sunglasses and a hat pulled down to cover your eyes and forehead, but you are sitting at a 10 dollar poker table and playing badly they will think you an idiot and pay o attention to you. Always Remember you want people to think that you are a first time player, but you also want to win some money, so playing foolish the entire time will make them think that you obviously do not know how to play, but you are not going to win any of their money and they are going to go home with yours. This is not the kind of thing that you need to set up for the next time you are at that casino. Jack Reider has made lots of money playing roulette in online casinos and in online poker rooms. This is why he left his job as a CPA and became a casino reviewer for a gambling related website.
