Different strategies for different people, I guess. I can't keep a straight face so I vary expressions as well.

Thanks

Thanks to everyone for the advice. For the most part, it seems pretty obvious that everyone agrees that a player can read someone's body language to determine if they have a good hand or a bad hand. I get that. But, take the movie Rounders, for example. Remember when Matt Damon walks in to that game of amateurs and says what each player is holding? Is that for real, or a bunch of movie garbage???

I haven't seen that movie, but it sounds like movie stuff to me. How can someone just walk into a room and recite exactly what cards everyone is holding? I mean, if it's real, I've yet to see someone like that.

I will add here that even though expressions are important but I think for experienced players it does not matter too much because they must have gone through these things early in their life.

Heh, with more than one person, it's just a script thing to make it sound much more cooler than that You could have an idea on several people, but perhaps not to that extent

Thats the fun part of poker, trying to read other people's hands and body language. Learn how to tell when they are bluffing.70% of players aren't all that good when it comes to bluffing.

The best way to try and read somebody's hand is by looking into their eyes and playing close attention to their body language. Most people will always give off some type of hint to what they have. Only the most skilled people are able to hide all signs of their hand. It takes a lot of practice.

Players pays close attention to the facial expression and body language of their opponents. With that they will know who have the good cards with them. Some also pays attention to the cards revealed and think of the remaining ones that is possible to be revealed.

That is what I also feel. It might be difficult to do it all the time with all the people but even if it is not 100% but that can be done to a vey high level by a professional.
