A poker face is an impassive expression maintained by players during poker or other card games to conceal their emotions and the strength of their hand from other players. By masking excitement, fear, joy or other telling emotions, a player with a disciplined poker face keeps their opponents guessing about the desirability and strength of their cards. Maintaining a poker face through composure and restraint allows a player to closet their hand while evaluating situational probabilities and opponent tendencies to make strategic betting decisions without revealing valuable information.
