Poker, just like life in general, is best played when you know who you’re facing. You’ll be in the advantage if you can quickly and accurately know more about your opponents and how they play. One of the factors that can determine their expertise at the table is their demeanor. The more comfortable they are on the table, the more experienced player they are.

Aggressiveness is also an indicator. It is a rule of thumb not to enter a pot against an aggressive player unless you really have a strong hand and ready to take on the challenge.
