i always muck, i only show my cards when I cant go ahead in the hand
with a top pair, or AA but the kicker is low..but all the time the vilain
is bluffing...
Online never. Live only if I’m using it to set a trap for a later hand, normally in a cash game. I find you move tables a lot in online MTTs so why give any information if there’s no +EV reason to do so.
I show my bluffs so my opponents know I might be bluffing and are more likely to call. Those who do not bluff are fish. But if i played the hand a certain way like check raise semi bluffing I do not want my opponents to see that I play that way. Showing bluffs is god,showing cards to brag is bad.
I used to do it when i had a monster hand and no one calls. But since i read a lot about it, i don´t do it anymore. I didn´t know that instead ob being a trap for villans was a trap for me. I was giving information for free to my opponents.
Muck, keep the others guessing, If you show just good ones, they will think the muck is a bluff. I would only show to someone I have bluffed that I don't like or who gets upset easily like Phil Hellmuth. It can put them on tilt.
I think that the cards should never be shown, particularly I almost never show them in 100 hands I could say that I will show my cards only once.
You should not give information when you rivar about your game.
I also very rarely show as I dont want to give information but sometimes with people I've found friendly etc and it feels like the sort of hand that wont give too much away with a show I sometimes do
