6. The ambiguous check
This guy looks like he’s thinking about what to do, and absent-mindedly taps his hand on the table. If you check behind him, he may suddenly announce that that hand motion was not, in fact, a check, but just him thinking. Then he puts in a large bet, now knowing that you must not have a strong hand. Conversely, if you bet, he will likely fold quietly.
The remedy here is twofold. First, before you do anything, you can ask the dealer whether the movement you saw was that player checking.
Alternatively, if you check behind, and the angle shooter tries to bet, you can ask the floor for a ruling. Card rooms should use this rule: any hand motion that can reasonably be interpreted as a check will be so interpreted. Not all do this, however, so clarifying the situation before taking your turn is better.
