If an opponent shrugs and bets, beware!
You should seldom call any player who shrugs while betting. A shrug is a gesture that means, “I’m not sure if this hand is strong enough.” Don’t be a victim of that act. Your opponent is encouraging your call by pretending to be vulnerable. Fold against even a faint suggestion of a shrug, unless you also hold a monster hand.
