I gave up trying to purposely look for tells. It's exhausting, you can out-think yourself, and too often you can end up in those Rounders "gonna outplay this guy, this hand" situations...bunch 'o crap.

I used to play with this guy who would hawk at you, looking for a read. He was never right, and he should have been thinking about the previous bets instead of the way someone blinks.

I have enough other areas of my game to work on which should keep me quite busy.
