That's why I love it. We used to play it almost every day. I have one partner that we understand each other so much that it was almost impossible to beat us. We were so good that we created our own modified plans.

I have that with a friend too. We have simple facial expressions that indicate exactly what hand we have. We always had the upper hand and won 90 percent of the time. Good times.....

We never had facial expressions, it's all in the way we play.

When playing Hold'em with someone it is not facial expressions that matter. It is the style of betting that brings a lot of money. It is a classical technique actually, no secrets here, one takes risks and the other is super cautious.

When you know what hand a person playing against you has, this can give you a big advantage in various situations. It's not only about betting, it's a lot about reading what your opponent has by their reactions, body language, and betting. Some people have a certain style of betting you can get used to, the best poker players are the ones that variate their styles of play.

Betting style is also very important. Personally, I love to trap people, this means if I have a fullhouse on the flop, I check and wait for someone to try and bluff, or better yet I would go all in right away of it was a big pot. That way, they would expect me to be bluffing and would therefore call me.

There are so many different tactics and styles in Texas hold em, especially in no-limit texas hold em where the betting is open. That's where you really need to be very clever and try to bluff yor way out of a bad hand for a very good pot.

It's a great game.

I love the game a lot, but man, you should see my hand. Everytime I get bad, and I mean worst ever hand on the table, man I change my place, still I get the worst. Maybe it's me and my partner, we together bring bad luck

There are many other great poker variants besides NLHE, and most of them require an amount of skill at least equal to that of NLHE. In fact, very few pro's make a living out of playing NLHE.
