The Art of the Bluff

Making other gamblers in a casino poker room can give you a big advantage. Here are some ways you can make it seem like it is your first time in a casinos poker room.

The poker rooms host or hostess will walk you to your poker table. The people at the table will be expecting a new player and will be looking to see who they will bring over, so make sure from the moment you walk into the casinos poker room you have your gambling face on. The bluffing in poker does not start at the table it starts the minute you enter the room. They will be looking to size you up, so make sure you throw them off from the get go, this way all assumptions they make based on that first impression will be wrong. Look around the room in amazement; maybe even stumble a bit because you were looking around and not where you were going.

During the game make a face when you have a bad hand, but do it just for a minute then make sure to look around the table nervously to see if anyone noticed, but do not make eye contact with them make it seem like you did not notice them. If someone did notice they will think you have a bad poker face and must be a beginner. If more then one person saw you then fold the hand. Someone who has been playing poker for any length of time would never make a mistake like that.

During the game, eventually you will get a good hand, when this occurs you should start betting big and keep raising the bet, then if someone challenges you try to raise the bet past the table limit. This will make it obvious that you have very little experience in a casino. The point is that you need to win this hand, so do not start raising the bet unless you are sure you have a good chance of winning. You should make sure to have at least a full house in your hand at the time, but if you do lose the hand it also lend credibility to the illusion that you o not know what you are doing in the poker room.

It is also good if at the beginning to just play bad. Stay in and bet big with just a pair in your hand. If I was at a table with someone who played like that I would assume they either did not know how to play, they just do not play well or they just do not play often, and I would assume that this player was a fish.

Just as you should dress for success in the business world in the world of casino poker room texas holdem you have to dress right. Normally you would not want to look like an idiot at the poker table, but in this case you do want to look stupid. If you watch poker on TV you see how the pros dress, this is not at all how a normal gambler would dress in a poker room, but if you dress like this the people will think that you just watch too much television and won't take you for a serious player.

Let's try to keep it in mind that even though we want to appear stupid you have to be smart to pull this off. If all you o is play dumb you will loose all your money, and if you keep wining everyone will know you are not just getting lucky.
