Protecting Your Value – When Your Body Gives Away a Strong Hand

In this spot, Karim Chelli notices a subtle yet powerful live tell: a player keeps her hands on the cards after calling and returns to her main position. This reflex of 'protecting value' often reveals a good but vulnerable hand. This video demonstrates how to recognize such a tell and what to infer from it on the flop, turn, and during an unusually small block bet on the river.
