Question
IS it best stay quiet and unoticed during poker or boast loadly to put off oppenents?  

Answer
Hi Luke,
Obviously, your question relates to "live" poker, as opposed to video poker. My area of expertise is on the machine side of gaming, but I may as well offer my opinion.

I tend to favor the "quiet and unnoticed" behavior.  But I have seen the bragging style work as well.  The reason for my choice is that by not saying anything, not moving a muscle, you are hopefully telegraphing nothing to the other players.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Expertise

If you would like to understand spinning reel slot machines, video poker and multi-line video slot machines, I can help. Can answer most questions on odds, math, trends, myths and realities related to gaming devices at licensed casinos in the US. I have no winning "systems" to offer. Please limit questions to slot machines in licensed casinos. Please do not ask about table games, or how to fix a machine!

Experience

Work for a major manufacturer of gaming/slot machines, which are sold strictly to licensed casinos.
