One goldmine of information is timing tells, here\u2019s five of the biggest free gifts going\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p>1) <strong>The instant call<\/strong> \u2013 Your opponent most likely has one of two hands, a draw or a weak made hand that she is simply trying to get to showdown. The quick call or check\/call occurs because she knows that calling is the only option so there is nothing to think about<\/p>\n<p>2) <strong>The instant check<\/strong> \u2013 Another post-flop timing tell which is most reliable on the turn and river if your opponent is out of position and has called pre-flop and on the flop. An instant check usually indicates that they\u2019ve gone into check\/call mode and aren\u2019t considering any other option. So if you have a draw or a marginal hand it can pay to take a free card, if you have a strong hand charge them a big price to continue.<\/p>\n<p>3) <strong>The instant check-raise<\/strong> \u2013 This one, especially if it\u2019s a check min-raise, is usually a massive sign of strength. The instant nature of the action indicates that your opponent has got so excited about the strength of their hand that they just couldn\u2019t wait to mash the raise button. A word of warning, if the min-raise occurs in position, especially on a draw heavy board then your opponent is likely trying to buy a free card on a future street as cheaply as possible.<\/p>\n<p>4) <strong>The pause, then raise all-in<\/strong> \u2013 By pausing your opponent is trying to make you think they have a real decision to make, perhaps a borderline one, when really they\u2019ve got a very strong hand. Don\u2019t fall for it. A caveat is that the pause could, occasionally be down to the player playing on many tables at once so make use of the search function.<\/p>\n<p>5) <b>The pause, then check or min-bet \u2013 <\/b>Both of these are signs of weakness, the pause is once again made to make you think that your opponent is mulling over whether to check or bet, in the hope that when they check you won\u2019t bet, which you should. The modern variation on the check is the min-bet, which is often miniscule in comparison to the pot, this is designed to get you to just call with good but not great hands, like top pair top kicker. Although you miss out on value I often like to min-raise this bet back just to play them at their own game!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The all new partypoker\u00a0Sunday tournament schedule<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The all new partypoker has introduced\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partypoker.com\/whats-going-on\/tournaments\/the-majors\/sunday-majors.html\">a new Sunday tournament schedule<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0The key changes are the addition of an action-packed fun $10K Super Bounty and a wide range of new low buy-in tournaments featuring the best of the old but also new speed, rebuy, add-on and PLO tournaments \u2013 a great Sunday mix if you want to win top prizes and have fun playing tournament poker.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Keep up to date with the all new partypoker!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Get all the latest partypoker updates from your favorite social media outlets.
