I believe it’s best to give as little info as possible so no, I rarely show my cards

show cards

Hi everyone.

Do you usually show the cards before returning them to the deck? I have read that sometimes it can be a good strategy to put rivals on tilt ...

Leave your comment here with the reasons why you do it (or not).

I do not usually do it because for me it is free information for others ....

Also, regarding the first sentence, it seems disrespectful to others, but hey, don't forget that you are reading a rookie's opinion.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Best regards from Buenos Aires.

I don't always show my cards, I only show when I want another player to make a mistake when I bluff. I show my bet if he didn't go and next time I bet everything on that player with an invincible hand ...

I would never show in a situation where it matters. For example a bluffed or high stakes hand played. I only show if I already folded and would have made a straigt flush or quads if I would not have folded.

Darn good question (with I'd thought of it). You know what, I show my cards a lot more online than in real life. I worry about tell in real life so don't show that often.

I do like to show strong hands especially. Make people afraid of my raises.

No, but I once played a showtime tournament where if you folded your hand was automatically shown, and it was 6 max tables so seeing my outs and stuff was pretty cool too.

When I play online usually I do not , but if there is a friendly take I usually do. Online players do not show their cards , it is anonymous and this annoys me that's why I do not show either

specifically ina tournament, i'll show some bluffs to create a wild table imagine and they will be more likely to call and also take the same lines with them to for the fact that when I get that nuts I will get the light calls.

Info showing my cards

I do not show my cards because others can learn from how I play.

Good afternoom

Hello you who are in Buenos Aires.

I don't usually boast of showing the cards, but one in 200 hands played shows at least one card to show that I'm not playing or bluffing.:)

Basically, I am not a fan of showing my cards, although there are situations when it is necessary to show your cards in order to mislead the enemy ...

I will show if I've been playing tight all night and bluff. And vice versa, if I've been playing loose and have the nuts.

Try and rep a certain table image.

I prefer to never show my cards.

But I noticed at 888 there is a bug; all cards are revealed in the replay.
