Hello all!
How often do you show your hands? If I get pushed off a strong holding when I have a good idea that I'm beat, I will rarely show this hand to the table. My thought is I am trying to communicate that I play strong hands and bluffing me will not always work. Obviously, I do bluff on occasion to mix things up.
Similarly, I will rarely show a bluff to show them I am capable of doing so.
Finally, if I make rare hands like quads, straight flushes, or royal flushes (I've only had two of these in my entire career lol), I show them because....well, they're really rare!
What are your thoughts? Should I hide all my hands or play mind games with the table?
