Caro Book of Poker Tells edition by Mike Caro Humor Entertainment eBooks Reviews
If you are a high-level poker player, or a beginning player - this book should be the first one that you read....and then you should read it again every 6 months!
Just using a handful of tips from this book will give you noticeable improvement in 1 live playing session.
Mike lays it out in such a simple, easy to understand, manner that translates into an executable plan.
Given it's revered status among the poker community, I felt I needed to read it. It is dated. I personally have found more table value with Zach Elwood's books.
First off, this is an older book that does not cover online games. If you only play online, pass on this book.
I've read a few poker books so far, and all of them have mentioned this book as "the" book to read on poker tells. Since pros were recommending this book I decided that I needed to pick up a copy.
This is the only poker book I've read twice.
Caro's book contains just over 20 tells, with a chapter on each tell, it's variations, and how to exploit it. It also gives a reliability scale for each tell which shows how effective it is against beginners, intermediates and experts. Surprisingly, beginners and experts are about equally vulnerable to some tells.
Caro shows that there are two types of tells, those from people who are unaware, and those from people who are faking the tell (actors). He gives guidelines on how to help determine if the tell is real or just an act.
I laughed out loud several times because Caro would come to a tell that I had. I found myself saying, "I do do that!" or, "Hey, my buddy does that!"
That being said, tells are not the Holy Grail of poker. Nobody can look at another person and instantly know they're holding a pair of Queens. Certain behaviors make it MORE THAN LIKELY that someone has a monster hand, or is bluffing, or doesn't want to be called. It doesn't guarantee it.
Even if you can put someone on good cards or bad cards, at a full table you'll rarely be in a position to exploit it because you have to worry about the other eight players and the strength of your own hand.
Also, some tells only work for draw poker, so if you only play Hold'em they're not directly applicable.
Over the long term I'd say that if you really sat down and studied/digested this book it will add about a 3% to 5% advantage to your game. More if you play against amateurs, less if you play against good players.
Pictures are so dated! Plus, Tells are the most overrated aspect of the game. You have to play with the same people over and over again. This doesn't happen for the average player at a casino
Fabulous book to get you started looking for poker opponent tells. Remember that tells are not always one hundred percent reliable. The best time to use tells is pots that contain two or three opponents while you are not in the pot and you get to view what you feel is a tell then results of hand which will let you know if you spotted tell. Then when you are playing opponent you have spotted tell earlier for free but now a pot you are in with them see tell to call or fold or raise and you have to trust the tell.
This book is a widely read classic, and if you are the only one at the table who has not read it you will be at a disadvantage. Topics like shuffling a hand, nervousness, fearlessness, glancing at chips, protecting a hand and many more are discussed and illustrated with pictures. The book is divided into two general sections tells from those who are unaware that they are giving out tells and tells from actors whose tells are meant to mislead. For the latter group of tells, a tell denoting a weak hand generally means that they have a strong hand, and tells denoting strength actually denote weakness. The trick is to distinguish the actors from the unaware.
The biggest problem in applying this book is that it is so widely read that some actors try to do a double tell, i.e., denoting strength when they are strong, or weakness when they are actually weak, in the hope that people who have read the book will assume that the tell actually denoted the opposite. Thus, not only do you have to determine the actors from the unaware but you must also decide if the actor is trying to give a tell that denotes the opposite of the hand or one that denotes the hand in the hope that you will assume that it is the opposite. Things can thus get confusing very fast. Professionals claim that they try not to give any tells at all, which is a wise approach.
This book is useful on two levels. The beginner can learn about tells and those that they may be giving out, and the more advanced player how to utilize the tells that their opponents give out. As such, if you know nothing about tells, you will be clueless and likely to be a consistent loser. This book will at least help to level the playing field.
The bible for tells. I own 5 poker books (Super Sytem, Harrington On Hold'em 1-3, adn now Caro's Poker Tells. For me, these books are essential for your poker library. If Daniel Negreanu ever publishes one that goes in depth with his Small Ball system, I'll add that one to the mix, but for now, I'm pretty happy and doing well.
