Do you have a natural poker face?

As poker continues to become more and more popular around the world many people are trying to find their natural poker faces to see if they can bag the big prizes. However, there is some discussion as to whether you can create a poker face or it does indeed come naturally. So how can you find your natural poker face?<br /> <br /> In effect your poker face is a simple mask which hides your inner feelings and emotions during live game time. While many people automatically expect a poker face to be one which is sad and dour it can often work in your interests to have a slightly aggressive and slightly confrontational poker face which can intimidate your opponents. While intimidation is not something which you should set out to convey to your competitors it is something which comes naturally for many poker players!<br /> <br /> More and more players around the world are becoming experts in "reading poker player faces" so if you're able to stay in control of your emotions and exude an air of confidence even with the weakest of hands then you have a chance of tricking and catching out your opponents. However, it must be said that those who rely on their poker face for each and every hand will at some point be "found out" and the best players know when to hold them, fold them and walk away - in the words of a famous song.
