Is there a way that you can ensure being difficult to predict at Poker? For example, if you never bluff, people will eventually get to known that and it will reduce your ability to profit from good cards? Anyone there knows techniques or trick to avoid being easy to read?

Just play randomly in terms of emotions and actions/gestures so that your opponent wont really be easily reading up on you in case you do have a bad or good card at hand.

Even just going plain will eventually be hard for someone to know on whats you up to.Dont get yourself too obvious if you do have a bad hand.Try to cover it up
and play smart because this is one of the most common gestures that you can see on a poker game.

You can use your own strategy or method to convince your opponent that you get the better hand, by playing casually and not caring if your opponent is suspicious of reading the cards you have. every now and then maybe do a ridiculous strategy of throwing cards that can panic them

Try playing against players on different online gaming platforms that are available. Here when you play for long time, you'll get to know about different tricks and strategies. We can't say this will work perfectly when you go on gambling, but you can give a try with small amount of bets on the experimented strategies/tricks.

Oh. You're saying the he must perform some bluff in order to make his opponents like unpredictable about his moves or like unaware of his cards. I think bluffing is one of the most used strategy in poker yet it is not guaranteed to always succeed or effective. Sometimes, bluffing can be the reason why you'll end up losing. For me, I suggest to give the best decision always because we all know that poker game isn't a long way game but a very short gametime. I guess and I agree to idea of bluffing, yet always have a second or back up plan in order to avoid losing or to avoid some negative effects.

Made my day, lol..

That sounds funny but it's a great advise actually, our opponent would not see our emotion when we are playing online so we can always hide it.
However, if we really like to learn more, we need to experience betting more, don't bet an aggressive amount if you are not yet seasoned as a poker player, just be patient your time will come when you improve.

If you are new to the poker game, I think the other player will not feel difficult to predict if you have a good card or not because they can see if you are new to poker. People can see if you can bluff them or you are just trying to trick them, especially if you play with a veteran in a poker game. Maybe they will look a dump or even newbie and pretend they do not have skills in poker, but in the next minute, they can turn become a pro and beat your card.

if you are good at hiding your expression your enemy will have a hard time predicting you but there is no way to ensure that your moves are not predictable because its hard to know if what is running in your oponents head but playing against the enemy that you havent faced before will make you confident with your moves because they are unfamiliar with you .
im not pro at playing poker but that is the best solution that i can think of

Some of a player all in at the beginning while had a bad card, this strategy for check how possible he gets a win when bluffing. in the next game he raising the bet and wait for another player for calling if another player raises his bet, he will fold his card. I've ever seen this player type and I know what purpose is unpredictable, in the next game he plays as usually if he had possible winning he waiting for another player to raising and of course will reraise his bet. It's hard to know the nature of the player while playing, it might be better to watch before sitting on chair.

There is an interesting psychological trick that can be successfully applied in the game of poker.

Its essence lies in the creation of subpersonalities and interaction with players from the position of subpersonalities. This is not difficult if you have studied acting and know how to get used to the role according to Stanislavsky's method. This will allow you to always be unpredictable. It will be very difficult for your opponents to predict your actions.

Also pay attention to the game Mafia. The Mafia game is very popular in Ukraine and Russia.

Mafia lovers are masters of bluffing, and poker players can learn a lot from them.

Seriously, this will depend on you and what type of personality do you have. If you’re look more serious then it can be a good weapon for you, and if you look with less emotion that can also be good. We don’t know how the opponents reads your every move, so stay calm and focus on the game.

You may be surprised, but playing online means that you will be as predictable as possible. Professional players use special software that collects all statistics on players, so they see how likely you are to act in different situations. These statistics gathering programs create a complete pattern of player behavior.

Being unpredictable is a skill in life as much as at the card table. I would say to mix things up. When not a lot of funds are on the line, do the opposite of what is expected of you. Add some randomness to your game and your life. You’ll live longer.

Well said, being a bit Machiavellian is a rule to survive this difficult world. The principles you stated can be really applied anywhere: when choosing a password, when storing bitcoin keys, when doing a gift to somebody...
It feels good, sometimes, to behave like a glitch in the Matrix

This may not be true. Your emotions and strategies could still be predictable even if you are playing online poker.

For me, you can be unpredictable if you don't stick to a single strategy. Please don't treat me as an expert in poker, of course. I am mostly just playing for fun and even with fun poker games with little bets, my hand would still uncontrollably shake.

Anyway, having only one approach will make your play very transparent. Try to shift from one approach to another and your opponent will keep on guessing. Being too methodical in poker would be to your disadvantage. Playing only premium hands, for example, will soon become apparent to your opponent and you may easily fall to weaker hands through a bluff.

Yes, the longer the sessions the easier to get how people play poker. I agree it is not the same as playing live face2face but still if you are skilled enough you will get to know other people's strategies. For example, who folds a lot at the beginning will probably raise only when having good hands. You go to see them once and then they do not know how to continue playing.

There is no easy way to do that but you can for example bluff when you are playing during a hand with low amount betted on. I would not suggest you never bluff in a hand when many people have gone all in.The more you play the more you will know when to bluff.

You can practice having a poker face and make your strategy of playing mixed so as to make people think that you are playing randomly and always giveaway a red herring that the other players will notice but not in an overt manner like simple chin rub. Also the word is unpredictable, impredictable shows red lines when I type it in the post so it is not a real word.

Then be unpredictable, if you have good hand then don't act like you have, sometimes you have to play aggressive if you have a bad hand, and same when you have a good hand. So that your opponents will be having a hard time reading you and your cards.

And I would say that it's will also take a lot of practice, meaning you have to play at lot and of course you need to have a good bankroll as well.

I'm sure the random approach has its merits, but one technique that I sometimes use if I have a very strong hand is bet very conservatively initially, and then later on, say on the turn or the river we get a card that is no value to anyone, I suddenly bet big. More often than not this makes people think you are bluffing. The key I think with any strategy is to use it sparingly. Don't play to a pattern, because that becomes easy to read.

not sure if this actually works(since I don't know if my opponents think I am unpredictable) but having different plays or adust your plays for different cards on your hands is probably the best way to throw off or confuse your opponents. just like what Darker45 said do not stick to a single strategy. even in other games or sports playing the same strategy over and over again will make you predictable or easy to read. also

Never express anything even in your face that's the pro strategy of poker, remember you need to convince your opponents that you got better cards them even though its a lie, keep your confidence level high and your bankroll too incase if you got backfired.

I think the most important think to make you unpredictable is include a wider range of bluffs in your play sytle. But you should be careful not to over bluff. So instead of beginning to bluff too much when you are new to a table, I would recommend to stick to good startin hands for a while until you get the rep of playing only good cards. This is going to make it much easier for others to fold to your bets. But be careful to choose your bluff spots right. The right way of bluffing is not that easy. You need to make sure that you have atleast some blocker cards to make your bluff more believing.

What you ask is known as balancing, but it is only worthwhile to start balancing at medium levels. At micro limits or at the lower levels of land based casinos, people don't think too much. At those levels it is enough to select your starting hands well and bet for value aggressively.

When you go up levels, you will find more opponents who think and pay attention to what you do. So, if you are one of those who only bet when you have good hands, they will not pay you for value, and if they do it will be because they have a better hand than yours. This is where the concept of range balancing comes in. For preflop plays, for example, let's say a 3bet range of value is TT+, AJs+; Aqo+. If you want to balance you have to put into the range other hands that are not as good but may have good postflop playability depending on what comes out, such as 22-55 or 78s-TJs.

For postflop play the same, you can't just bet or re-raise only when you have a good hand, you have to start doing it with other hands, and it's better to start with semi-bluffs and later on you will put in pure bluffs.
