888 not being able to show your bluffs or hands

is it me or has anyone else played on 888 aka pacific poker and not able to show a bluff this erks the cra** out of me , and even with automuck off u are not able to show any hand u win unless vs showdown or u have been called , i have talked to customer support and they say they will upgade their software but i havent seen it , i ask people in freerolls and they never seem to respond, this is suppose to be a top ten site and u cant even show your bluff or even 1 card like most other sites allow , this sux

Pacific poker. Top 10.... lmao!!!
I hate the dam site, imo its not in top 50. I have $10 on there that i cant get off because i can deposit using neteller, but not withdraw using neteller. Absolutley stupid. i hate it. i hate it. i hate it.

And the software is just worse than terrible, i hope the site closes down.

Never been a fan of it, can think of anything nice to say about it - so i guess i better say nothing at all lol

your right i have close to $100 in ther i have to get it out , i love poker.com also and absolute, has any 1 played on bowmans , i,m playing the freerols but havent made a deposit yet

Bowmans? Never heard of it. Is it the same network as any other sites?

yes bowmans was bought out by 365 its the prima network they have quite a few freerolls,1000k rolls and their own 2-300 rollsdaily, good software and support ,i did find i took a few bad beats by straights in the freerolls but i just started playing ther so i will give the freerolls a chance

Wait whoa, there are sites that allow you to only show one card?
I WANT THAT.

thats legit, too bad the pokerstars does not have that

Well you can show only 1 card in real life........

You can do lots of things in real life you can't do on internet poker sites

True true, but you were saying it like it is something so amazing :P

you cant show only one card anymore, maybe thats just in tournys but its a new rule. also i liked pacific , they had a 10,000 dollar gaur. tourny for 10 bucks. but they shut me down wnen the poker law came out.

well just the other day on poker.com i saw one card flashed it was in a freeroll, not sure about the sng's i plan on playing a few though

Poker.com allows you to do just that.
It also allows you to rabbit hunt.

It's not a new rule, and only applies to winning a hand. To win any portion of a pot, a player must show all of his cards. So you can't show one card to win, even if you just playing one card. But this is not new.

As far as folding goes, if it is down to just two players and one bets, the other decides to fold, he can show none, one/some (depending on game), or all of his down cards.

While not every site will give you everything, I would like to see the major sites incorporate these extras into their software. Take PokerStars for example, while I very rarely show my cards, but if you're facing a big bet you don't call, they don't even give you the option of showing your cards at all (unless there is a setting I'm missing somewhere), much less just showing one. And if you bet out and your opponent folds, you obv win the and by attrition and don't have to show anything, but your only choice is muck or show both. Showing one would be a nice option.

As far as rabbit hunting goes, not sure I like it or not, tbh. I think it could produce a lot more results oriented, "Gee, gosh, see I knew I should have called" type play. That said, if I had to request it, I'd say keep it totally out of tournament play altogether. It doesn't belong there. If it was going to be incorporated, I'd have it put in ring games only, and only available when you fold to a turn or river bet. Maybe even take it a little further and say that you can rabbit hunt only if you fold to an all in turn or river bet. IDK, I still think it could drive even more result oriented or tilt play, but I can see it's merits as well if you are simply using it for interest purposes on what you think are marginal decisions and not for guiding you to bad future calls because you "know it's going to happen". But regardless, only in ring, not in tourney.

I signed up to 888 as you do and they gave me a $5 free starter. I played it up to about $25 in 20 mins but i hated the site so much. Very difficult to use and not user friendly at all..
