Tells

[The_Gunt]

Just thinking about the process of trying to read people and I seem to put my tells into 2 categories. The first would be specific motions or actions that people do in certain situations. An example would be someone playing with their chips using their left hand when they are bluffing. I know there are several books and sections of books that speak to these types of tells. Are there any no player specific telld that you guys pick up on a regular basis?

The other would be the the non-specific tells, the general feelings I get from their overall behavior. A lot of time this is just touchy feely stuff like their general overall expression or how they hold themselves at the table. Not sure that there is as much written about this subject. I may be able to better explain it by saying the sum of all the reads are worth more than the individual specific tells by themselves.

Any thoughts on tells or stories that you guys can tell about reads you have picked up and how you used them to your advantage?
