Let me be frank. I put on the image of a loudmouth, but I have fun at the table, as do my "customers." I used "jerkwad" a bit too liberally. Usually, everyone I encourage an environment where everyone has a good time.<br/><br/>You may be right about Caro, though. I'm sure he makes more money with Caro University and the like. That said, I have personally seen the shuffle tell pay off. <br/><br/>My problem with your original comment was its combative tone, as though you would always stack me off merely because on one occassion, I thought I picked up a tell.<br/><br/>That all said, the POINT of the comment was to show the fallability of tells. So, I think we are really on the same page here. I still think that the shuffle tell is reliable under the right conditions. I always advocate caution when it comes to tells.

My problem with your original comment was its combative tone, as though you would always stack me off merely because on one occassion, I thought I picked up a tell.

That all said, the POINT of the comment was to show the fallability of tells. So, I think we are really on the same page here. I still think that the shuffle tell is reliable under the right conditions. I always advocate caution when it comes to tells.

Was more focused on Stud<br/><br/>b. Shown as being unreliable at best.<br/><br/>And allow me to add:<br/><br/>c. Caro is a horrible Poker Player. (and yes I have played with him BOTH live and online, sample size being very small of course)<br/><br/>d. He makes his income pimping his products to folks like you and me.<br/><br/><br/>You wouldn't know if you ran into me, cause I run incognito...just another tourist in your eyes.<br/><br/>While you refuse to check the ego, I'll keep it humble while at the table. I find it to be much more profitable to treat my "customers" with respect than to portray an image of being a "jerkwad". <br/><br/>Plus, I run Goot! So you can save the flattery elsewhere.<br/><br/>Love,<br/><br/>-Champ Listen, you made the reference like it was some sort of absolute.(justifying your dismay of hand strength with the flush possibility) Maybe if you re-read that section, from that 1970′s book, you would see that tell:

a. Was more focused on Stud

b. Shown as being unreliable at best.

And allow me to add:

c. Caro is a horrible Poker Player. (and yes I have played with him BOTH live and online, sample size being very small of course)

d. He makes his income pimping his products to folks like you and me.

You wouldn’t know if you ran into me, cause I run incognito…just another tourist in your eyes.

While you refuse to check the ego, I’ll keep it humble while at the table. I find it to be much more profitable to treat my “customers” with respect than to portray an image of being a “jerkwad”.

Plus, I run Goot! So you can save the flattery elsewhere.

Love,

-Champ

I made a read on a hand I was not involved with. I think the reason why this particular guy really was scared of the flush. That all said, I did not make a decision based solely on a read. The School of Caro is VERY useful against unknowledgeable players at a 1/2 NL table. Add my intended table image (loose jerkwad) and reverse tells by the few knowledgeable players are few and far between. Even with that said, I am always conscious of the skills of my opponents, including whether they are crafty enough to put on reverse tells. This guy was not. But I appreciate your sense of self-grandeur. Suck it, bitch.<br/><br/>BWOP, its a shame I didn't see you, but I was probably too busy anyway. champ, your sense of superiority is comical.

The School of Caro is just another piece but FAR from absolute certainty. (Card Shuffling included) You sir are the reason why we pull reverse tells on our table.
