Some players focus solely on the cards, others watch the people. Karim Chelli, a specialist in live tells and mindset, reveals in this video why the real edge in poker lies with insights that solvers can’t provide. “Cards stay the same. Opponents change,” explains Karim as he analyzes every subtle reaction at the table. He discusses why eye contact often signals weakness, how a player’s behavior shifts with position, and how every movement of the chin or smile can reveal the strength of a hand.
In his demonstrations, Karim shows that even without seeing the flop, you can gather crucial information just by observing others. He reiterates his motto: “Information equals money” – the more you see, the more you earn. He also demonstrates how to avoid stress reactions that destroy focus during long sessions. “The best decisions in life are made in calm,” he reminds us. “Poker isn’t about emotions, but about balancing perception and thought.”
