Mike Caro is the hero of poker tells. His excellent book “Mike Caro’s Book of Poker Tells” is a great resource when looking for tells – but if you’re lazy like me, the video above is an excellent alternative – as these are the 10 most rigid tells he’s figured out.

Good luck trying these out on Chris “Jesus” Ferguson, though… ;-)

Daniel Negreanu with an Aces read

Daniel Negreanu is famous for reading players – but here he’s basicly just giving away extra info. Not sure why he’s doing that…

Ryan McClean does nothing wrong – a small value bet on the river might have been a better move, though…

The World Poker Tour is awesome – but this over-advertising is just silly.

OMG; okay, he’s probably going “NICE FREAKING CALL, IDIOT” behind his PC – but this is just a bad call by an idiot and a bad bad bad fastplay on the flop by the “hero”. 4-outers happen, donks happen too. Stop whining, donkey.

I’m not going to spoil anything for anyone — so not too much text – just a great video of a great Asian playing the Seven Deuce.

But I don’t dislike the play as much as the commentators do. Obviously that’s not the safest flop ever — but he did manage to get more out of the hand than a flop c-bet would have.
