I learn all sorts of neat things, such as the most "honest" parts of our body (in order) are: the feet, legs, torso, arms, hands, mouth, eyes, and finally, the face. In short, the lower part of your body is more likely to give away your intentions than the upper body. This has something to do with limbic system of your brain, as opposed to the neo-cortex part. At least, that's what I wrote down.

So, what are you supposed to do when you are at the table, look under the table when a guy makes a bet?

Excellent, thx for posting that.

What's the logic behind liking pocket 7s so much, btw?

[210]

I fold a lot. Because I fold a lot, when I finally come out with a bet on a pair of 8s, everyone else folds.

The exact reason why you should on occasion play a shitty hand cheaply if you can...that way people won't bail when you actually have somehting.

I know a lot of people that like pocket 7s...no idea why, I don't recall ever winning a big hand with them.

He did say that was the #10 on his Top 10 list of favorite hands to play. He didn't explain why, but I would like to see what the rest of the list is. I mean the Top 5 are probably obvious, but 6-9 might be interesting.

No, just when a lady bet.

Be advised she may express concern when you do, though. Tell her you are just looking to see if she has anything good.
