No, never) It is not necessary for my opponents to know what cards I could enter the hand with, as they will be able to understand my ranges.

depending on what stage of the tournament, usually when the bluff takes place

If it's a good and expensive tournament and I'm bluffing and my bluff passes, I rarely show my cards! When I make a strong hand and a player folds, I often show my nuts. Perhaps if this is the final stage of the tournament and the bluff has passed, then you need to show that you have nothing, this will thereby morally humiliate your opponent.

Only in some situation, like when I would get full house, but I folded preflop))))

I play poker about 12 years. I'm trying play poker everyday and i think i shoved my cards no more than maybe 20-30 times. So i almost never show my cards.

I hardly ever show my cards. I might list them in chat if asked after a hand, but I might be lying...;)

Almost never. I only show unless I bluff my friends and want to needle them

Do you usually show the cards before putting them back in the deck? Sometimes it can be a good strategy to brand rivals ... Leave your comment here with the reasons why you do it (or not)
I prefer never to show my cards.

In live play, I only show a strong hand, so I bluff more easily...

I very rarely show my cards, maybe several times in a blinds fight.
I think it can sometimes make more sense in a live game.

Generally no, but when I want to get in my opponent's head I do.

I never do this and I don't recommend it. Why reveal your cards, then he will see the ability to confront you in the future.

I never show my cards to opponents. Let them think for themselves and guess.

I did not voluntarily show my card, opponents need to pay to see it.

I don't show my cards and it doesn't matter to me when someone made a bluff and showed their cards, it means absolutely nothing to me, I will play the way I play

Much depends on the people sitting at the table. If people are adequate, I can show, often it happens that I just don’t have time to press the button and the cards are discarded

Sometimes this can be done for confusion. But I think it's better not to show, because the riddle motivates you to pay for the guess.:Cool:

yes, sometimes I show my cards, to show my opponents that I'm not bluffing and that I play with strategies
