I do not consider it necessary to prove something to someone. I never show my cards. I'm not in the habit of playing bad cards, but I'm not going to convince anyone of this either.

Sometimes I show cards, usually when I played a huge valuebet and the opponent folds after a long time.

No because everything at the table communicates information. I don’t want people knowing how I play ranges of hands.

I do not usually use this method, I think it is a disrespectful manner, especially if you boast like that among friends, and this gives the enemy more information about you.

I will never show my cards, because that's how I will keep my game strategy hidden

I do not show cards. Only if it is a royal flush - how can you not show such beauty? :star:

Once again, by showing your cards, you will give your opponent more information about your strategy of the game, which in poker they try to hide in every possible way.
You can't be sure that a particular player isn't playing a hand just to find out the specifics of your game. Perhaps he didn't get any clear information, and then you opened up and showed him everything for free. So definitely not.

I show the odd hand from time to time, as my friends often think I have made a good hand. So when I do have the winning hand I flash it now and again to reinforce that belief :)

I never show my cards.

It can be a good strategy, but I don't want to give my opponents ANY information, whatsoever....even misinformation. Eventually, they may pick up on it, and pick up on a routine that you might not even know you have.

Daniel Negreanu will sometimes show 1 card, because it makes the other players angry.

Works for him.

It's my feeling that it's better to have them guessing all the time.

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 typically do not show my cards...I'm assuming that it's after bluffing?
When playing Live I will do it from time to time so maybe every 5 bluffs depending on the number of hours at the table (cash game).
In a tournament with rapid movement as in a 888 freeroll there is no point unless you are very close to the final table.

Hello friend, I do not show the cards since I started playing, it is more in the configuration of the rooms that I play, it is configured not to show the cards, Greetings from Jujuy - argentina.

Hello,
I never show my cards and always make sure in my settings, that this is the case. Otherwise the other players get more information about my style then necessary. Information about the style you play is "King" - so try to show as least as possible.

Always a good hand to all of you.

I never do it, it is not my style, I consider that there is a lot of information that is given, and I only did it when I want to send a message specifically, just out of strategy but not out of habit.
