The first, and most obvious, online poker tell is the use of pre-selected actions in the poker software. These usually exist in the form of "check/fold", "check any", "call any", "call/raise any", and "raise any". Some software has more options than others but the check/fold button is pretty universal. Watch for players that use this - especially out of the big blind. You'll know when a player uses it by seeing an instant check when it gets to their turn. This usually indicates a very weak hand. Since the big blind had to put it money regardless of his hand, he'll usually be holding trash. If you see an instant check preflop and a quick check on the flop, go ahead and bet out regardless of the board. Much more often than not you'll pick up the small pot right there.

This works especially well when there's a face card on the board. Of course, you can manipulate this by occasionally clicking the "check any" from the big blind when you have a strong hand. Your opponents will believe that you clicked "check/fold" and you can set them up for a check-raise on the flop. On the other hand, you might occasionally see someone put in an immediate raise. This happens most often in limit hold'em, and you should be wary when you see this at your table as it usually indicates a strong hand. This can be also be used as a bluff if you don't overdo it. Some of your opponents are also savvy enough to use this as a bluff so think about fighting back if you see this move from a frequent bluffer. |
