I used to show it, but now I understand that this is additional information for my opponents about me.
But in some kind of free game, it happens and I will show my cards. Especially when the bluff succeeded

I never showed my cards, but in some situations it can be used correctly, so you will confuse your opponent;)

I don’t show my cards, I don’t see the purpose. In hifher stake cash game’s I think it would be harder to bluff.

usually not , because poker is an information game and the cards are your most precious information . So it is good to avoid giving information for free in a game lol:D:D:D:cool:

I never show cards.
Best to keep your opponents guessing what cards you have.

never. why provide additional information to opponents?

Free information? No. :five:

never, i never show my cards, i dont think would be something good

No,I don't do it, I don't see the point...


I see on first page of post my opinion and my think about this situation, and for me try to tilt someone showing you cards or give some miss readings for your opponent is too much fancy play, but you can do anything, free choice.

I never show my cards. I've even been asked by players after the hand to tell them and still don't. I see why some people benefit from showing cards when they have good cards, so that other's don't think they're bluffing next time, but I just don't agree with the idea of showing for my own game. More fun to keep them guessing.

Do I "usually" show my cards? No! Now, have I ever showed my cards? yes, as with everything in poker, it depends. Who am I playing against? What are the Stakes? Am I really just playing for fun? All of these things matter, because for me, the general Rule is give out the least bit of information that you can

I am always trying to keep my session enjoyable, this rule is the most important rule. If showing 1 card or 2. will provoke a reaction, I may decide it is worth creating an exemption.

Have fun and keep improving

No

I usually don't show cards, it's way too much intel to opponents.

I usually do not open cards, only if I fold a very strong hand, so that in subsequent distributions the opponent sees a raise and thinks if I threw such cards last time, then what does he have now :):)

I never do this,so that the player does not understand my game tactics and cannot combine his actions against me.

I don’t show many of my hands because it gives other players information on how you play but every once and a while I’ll show a bluff.

Each one has the choice they want, it depends on each player.

Hello, I don't usually show the cards. Neither when I win nor when I lose. and I think they should not be shown because information is given to rivals

I personally don't like to show my cards, in the poker rooms where I play I have this option disabled.
