Observation of the opponents in poker

Observation of the opponents in poker
By: Ian Johnson

One of the most important factors in playing poker is observation of our opponents and making notes. Not doing so is the most common mistake. Even if you fold the cards you should observe the action and how each of the players act.

We should note who and when play, from which position, with what hand and if they aggressive or passive. A good observation would give as an idea what kind of poker tells the players use on their side.

The best poker is not about our cards, but the opponents’ cards. If we would gather all of the information regarding a particular player’s style we would have a huge advantage as we would know what kind of hand he plays with. That’s the key to the success in that game.

We may influence our opponents. Poker is a game, where the rules are obvious. We can use all available tricks to get an advantage over other players. If we’d notice that one of the players gets angry easily we can use it by chatting with him for a while. This is a fight and the best wins – stronger personality, better skills and brighter mind.

The mechanism mentioned above is very important from the winner point of view. We can not forget that without poker strategy those factors won’t help us much. Poker is a beautiful game because it is so simple and so complicated at the same time.

Daniel Nagreanu once said, that poker is not about what cards are you holding, it's about what your opponents think about your hand. I guess he was right, and so are you in this informative piece of reading. Thanks!
