"Reads and tells" to be a successful poker player

[Roman]

If you want to play poker well, it's important to read your opponents.
You can acquire a solid read on your opponent in one of two ways. One is through watching them play and evaluating it because this offers unique insight into their general playing style and how they behave in various circumstances. Another method is to observe them physically and watch for any clues in thier body language that can reveal what cards they are holding or how they intend to bet.
