To know if a player is lying to you or not can be a bit tricky but with practice you can actually do it. You just need to change the topic your talking about swiftly when talking to someone to know if he's lying or not. Liars will welcome the change easily with no restraints while honest person will be a bit confused and will want to get back to the former topic.

Starting a conversation is one of the best methods in order to know who's . Many poker players especially the good ones talk in the tables endlessly. They save your reactions when your troubled and even when you're calm. Your calm state will bring out your natural reactions which can be use as a weapon against you.

One good instance of a conversation to pick a tell is about "Amarillo Slim" Preston. There was a time that Slim really had this hate thing against lady poker players. During his career, he encountered a very good player who is a woman. With this challenge in tow, Slim has no chance to play around, he wanted to win so that he won't have a chance to be embarrassed.

Before the match started, Slim already heard some info about the women. This info is about how much he like the drink she ordered. She thought that this true emotion will not be use against her. But she's wrong. Slim had already think about this and decided to ask the status of her hand when the game progresses.

However, as the game progresses the lady took the hint and started to ignore Slim on the game by wearing headphones. Slim and her enjoyed wiping the floor clean till the game ends.

Another trick using natural reaction against a poker player is this:

Percy is a fun of poker and enjoys playing it. While on the game, you watch him keeping his eyes close on a baseball game and he showed hints that he had money at stake on the game. Fortunately, the team his betting won and you ask him if he has money on it. He answered you yes and showed this big smirk on his face.

You try to use what to know when you're having a big bet game with Dan. To check out if his bluffing, you can tell him that you have a very big hand. When you see the same satisfied look he gave you during his winning in poker, then that would be an obvious tell that he has a very good set of cards.

Natural reactions can be the basis of some good poker players to get a great tell that can be used against you. To use this on your own, you better be an observant poker player. Always make sure that you see that natural reactions of your opponents firsthand.
