    Looks like he's looking at Antonious' cards. Just found this amusing and felt like sharing, that's all.

    He probably is.

    You've got to find every edge you can in this game.

    one of the best tells in live poker is studying someone's hands/movements

    the reason is that people aren't forced to move the rest of the body so if they're disciplined, they might be able to get away without giving too much info away. but they have to move their hands and any sort of movement tells a story if an experienced person is observing it.

    so bottom line, i don't think he's looking at his cards, antonius' hand/arm is in the way anyway.

    N82 hit it on the nub. u cant get a feel for somebodys vibe by just looking at your own cards, u have to actually study the other player. I played 3 al lago events this week and have figured out that this is a great thing to do. when ur locking on to someone(and ur the grinder) that person might be liable to give something away. Whether its a facial tick, hand movement, breathing patterns or whatever. Its all very crucial to study. VN post Nat

    uhh, antonius looks kind of pale in this picture? Has he been missing out on tanning? I hope he is staying in good shape... he has a reputation to live up to.

    Probably just the lighting, I wouldn't be too concerned. And besides, with the money he's making he doesn't even need to be attractive anymore. Lucky bastard

    i agree nat , most any player that has any live experience knows how to block his cards from all opponents. I seriously doubt antoniuos would allow an opponent to see his hiole cards
