Making reads on opponents

[saul9987]

I know this is key for all levels and forms of poker but its just kind of hard to develop reads in sngs and mtts online with multiple games going on at the same time and such, I was just wondering for some tips and categories to label people and what each category means as far as what someone is likely and not likely to do. Any help would be appreciated.

I have also heard loads of bad things about poker pro labs software, turns out when you use it, the software flashes subliminal messages and soon you are torturing kittens, dressing like Cher but singing like Barry White, this sort of thing should be banned.

MTTs are very hard to pick up solid reads in. You're changing tables so often that its too tough to pick up anything. Also, if the MTT is a rebuy then the first hour gives false reads with players looking to build stacks before the rebuys finish. I just play the percentage game in MTTs and STTs, playing strong hands and looking to see cheap flops with suited connectors.

Also, look for people opening a lot preflop, this lets u know they are loose and keep in mind how often they go to showdown. If they are going to showdown a lot after opening up then they are probably fish.
