Hi guys! How you use the opportunity to show his hand? When playing heads up often show a bluff I think. The MTT often contrary to bluff later. Or am I wrong? Share your experiences please. Thank you in advance.

Normally I wont show my cards. Just to show a raiser that I don't pay (when in BB) because I have nothing in my hand, but it's (show) extremely rare. The "rule" is never show, at least in online poker.

I usually never show cards exept when I make some great bluff and I know my opponent will get angry (rage monster) so this kind of stuff can mess his game up.

And if I play with a person I know or I like, sometimes I show my cards.

Best is not to show your cards after any hand to keep them guessing

When i show my hand is to trick the opponents, let me explain:

If I got a monster hand: flush, top pairs, straight and they don't pay, i will not show the hand, I will say ufff... My Bluff works.

If by a chance I get a Bluff and they pay, then I show it so they think i am a
Bluffer all the time! :deal:

Either show a monster early or show a bluff early and play accordingly. Showing good hands early opens ups bluffs later and showing bluffs early allow you to get paid off later. Knowing your opponents is key

This, ^^^^ use showing cards to your advantage. Show a top hand then later you can steal blinds if you play your bluff steal like you did with your top hands.

Like it has alrady been said use showing to your advantage.

my friend! Show card - is to open your range! Should I see once I start the card game to exploit your opponent! The matter of course but your stick the two ends!

If according to the rules I have to show their cards, the computer will do everything himself. I never show your cards. After showing the card once again, you will give more information about your style of play.

i agree with everyone because in HU ... the game changes...it has to ...the game turns to sparring and mostly fast pace so the stop to show should be taken by you as no info at all. play your stack vs his.

range of hands .......don't even think about it HU.

seriously don't show the hans ..turn "show hands" button off and play your game.

I usually don't show my cards, unless I'm playing with friends for fun, or if I think a player can tilt by showing him a bluff, but most of the time I don't hsow because you give lots of information about your game

Typically I only show my cards in three situations, if I have a monster hand and showing can set up a bluff later. If I pull off a big bluff that will illicit thin calls later or lastly, if they ask. No matter what I'm holding I can use that to my advantage against that opponent later. If I really don't want to show, or if I want to lie if that ask, I'll muck my cards before they get a chance to ask. I play mostly live games though. Online, I just check auto muck and don't worry about it.
