Varies from opponent to opponent obviously. As far as putting them on a range of hands, try to think what cards they could have based on the information theyve given you so far (remember, as Dan Harrington said, this is just a game of imperfect information). What did they do preflop...how about the flop, now what on the turn? If they had (this hand) how would they played it. How about (this other hand?)

Betting patterns are the biggest tell.

IF you're looking for an oreo cookie type tell, im not gunna say u wont find one, but i'll jus say Im not the person to ask about it bc i dont know

Spend some time reading threads (old and new) on this site. We've discussed literally thousands of specific situations in great detail.

That, or ask a specific question. Basically saying "Tell me everything you know about poker" isn't going to get you very far.

Information. You cant read someone online, as your getting no physical information. You have to go off betting patterns, and sometimes, time taken to play. Watch what cards people show you, people love showing huge hands if they dont get called, like AA, KK, flopped nuts, and trips e.t.c, take info of how they played it, and watchf or the patterns.

Another tip - if your on pokerstars or a site with the hand history feature, and its just a pop-up window that will show you how the hand played out, it will show peoples mucked cards if it went to a showdown and they mucked. ALWAYS look at this if a player mucks - you get mroe information there than anywhere else.
