Tips for Serious Players (5) Do not put your eyes down and hand up
I see this player
often
hands up
and then make opponent wait
and then he will play
so he just lost point
let's say
16-10
he is losing
and then his opponent is about to serve
and then suddenly
he will do that
he will put head down and hands up
and then
hands down and then ready
Number 1
when he hands up
means he is not ready
he is not ready to start the rally
and he put his eyes down
why?
he is thinking what to do
he is not confident
he is not ready
he is not confident
that means
I am telling my opponent
I am breathing
I am not ready please
please hold
looks like that
please give me some more time to breathe
to recover
because I am not ready
or
I haven't made my mind up what to do
yeah please wait for me
looks like that
if you are not ready to receive service
sometimes that is the case
then don't do that
do this way
if you have to wait a bit longer
okay my opponent
I am waiting here
my opponent is about to serve
then just watch
don't put your hands up
you just watch
because you are not ready
he can't serve
and then ready
not
you are ready to serve
he is already lost in a way
he is already losing
just feel the impression
okay
now watch this please
feel the impression
I am ready
I am about to serve
stop there
yeah head down
head down
what do you see?
what impression you get
I am ready to go
yeah
I am confident
okay I am ready
he is telling everybody
I am not ready
please
so its kind of habbit
the players who did it before
quite often they will do it again
hands up means
is surrender
in a way
don't hands up
if you are not ready
just stare at them and wait
to me not good at all
