Live - face/neck flushing (redness). People who are afraid of being the center of attention may do this. That's because they are hoping to do exactly that, become the center of attention, in a good way of course.

Also - trembling hands. Same thing, something big is on their mind, they are planning on becoming the center of attention and are not sure how to deal with it. They may also have their hands/fingers firmly planted somewhere to disguise the trembling.

Online - two check/calls in a row followed by a donk shove is almost a dead giveaway that your opponent has a monster. On the other hand the same two check/calls in a row followed by a third check is almost a dead giveaway that your opponent missed whatever they were drawing to. Of course, the latter could also be played with a bluffing shove, but most people won't try that. That's when you have to have history with this player to tell the difference.

A preflop shove, especially as an open from a player who hasn't been doing that well, almost always means AK/AQ/AJ or a big pair.

Longer hesitation - rarely means anything. Lots of strong players do this to throw you off. The player could also be taking a long swig of beer or doing something else. You never know.

Check/Insta-calling  - usually means drawing for something. A bit of hesitation on the call can mean a made hand that they are trying to disguise.
