In this exact situation I would not show the bluff. There is generally more to gain in the long run to not show than there is short term to put someone off especially if their tilt might benefit another player before you.

That's my pet peeve. Figuring out how exploitable a player is (sometimes at the cost of my chips), then watching someone else take all their money before I catch the cards to do it myself.

I would not intentionally put another player on tilt, it's kind of an unsportsmanship behaviour.
But there is nothing wrong and criminal to show a bluff, it's not an insult in my opinion. Still personally I would not show my bluff.

If it's possible to put him on a tilt without insulting him, you can bet it's worth it, because an opponent who is emotional and doesn't think properly is more susceptible to making mistakes and will only be able to save himself if he's lucky.

In any game, tilting your rival is a good idea; tilting an ally is a bad idea in a team game.

I wouldn’t intentionally tilt any poker player; in my opinion, there are better skill options that force those who consider themselves the best players at the gaming table to fold.

In truth no!!!
I see no reason to irritate our opponents at the table, besides we know that being bluffed, slow play and any other attitudes that could irritate one or another player are part of the game and should be taken in stride.

I never show my cards in any situation, always for me it is better to leave the doubt to the opponents, obviously it is fair play since it is in the skills of a good player to take advantage of the weaknesses of the opponents

I would. Poker is a mind game. If you take a player out of their comfort zone, you'll make them more vulnerable. My humble opinion.

Yes. Sometimes is good to show your bluff. And the tilt question is not about fair or not fair but what is necessary to do for win sometimes.

I believe in karma, so I would try not to do it, but in certain moments, you have to do what you have to do to win, always within the rules of the game

Estás jugando en una mesa con un jugador que cree que es el mejor de la mesa y se sabe que se inclina fácilmente cuando le engañan. ¡Entras en una mano con él y logras engañarlo para que se retire! ¿Le muestras tu farol? ¿Es juego limpio tomar acciones que inclinen a otros jugadores?

If I show you so that in the next few hands you have doubts! It can work out for you or not, is it risky? Yes, but it's a valid move

Is it fair to take actions that make other players lean

Call me old fashioned, but I still think Poker is a gentlemen's game. Let's play cards and be respectful to each other

Absolutely. Appart from the fact that I am still a grumpy old brat, arrogance and self importance are indeed exploitable and therefore profitable attributes of a person, as much in poker as in real life!

Hard to say for me what i would do since i never played a single hand who was not online XD I do like to troll and have fun at the table teasing my opponent when i do play online so yes probably would tease him just to get a reaction and show the bluff for the laugh :D.

No, I don't show my cards most of the times. I don't want to give valuable informations about my strategy. Also, I prefer to enjoy the game and I wouldn't like to cause tensions.

Olyan játékossal játszol egy asztalnál, aki azt hiszi, hogy ő a legjobb játékos az asztalnál, és akiről ismert, hogy könnyen megdől, ha blöffölnek. Egy leosztásba kerülsz vele, és sikeresen blöffölve dobod! Megmutatod neki a blöffödet? Fair play-e olyan cselekedeteket tenni, amelyek más játékosokat megbillentenek?

I wouldn't show him my bluff, and I also think it is Fair play, an act that will tip other players!

More than fair. If he thinks you are bluffi g, you can always take them out later with a premium hand.
