I don't show my cards. It's a very childish way to make to others aggressive. In addition, no one deserves to see your cards if they folded.

I never show my cards, but I can not understand many of the poker cards are sent in the pass card contender even if he sits out in front of me and his hand is worse (in normal poker except that possible?)

You need to know how to do it properly. If you re not sure, dont do it. No information is good. False information is much better and much harder to do. You need to know when to show and against who. Its really tricky and you need some manipulation experience but it can be a great weapon in your arsenal, but even if you know dont do it often.

My opinion

Once caught you bluff. I think the poker mind game of showing a bluff is part of the nerd technique to get your opponents on the defensive.

No, I'm not showing it. I don't think it's a big deal, though. Yes, sometimes you can show it, especially when you've made a good bluff. Jan or Vice versa, that you were not joking. And so I do not see the point of showing.

My only show is BB and the table folded all around and I won the SB and antes if there were any. Something to maybe upset the SB if it's like 26 and they missed an easy opportunity to raise with what they had and steal my blind. Or to show I had a high PP and how unlucky after playing tight that I missed the chance to play that hand.

I prefer don't show my cards. But I already did it in the past to tilt opponents.

I do not show my pocket cards. I think that it is possible to show cards if there is a purpose, for example, to mislead an opponent.

Showing Cards

I never show my cards unless it is at the end of the hand that shows my winning hand . No need to give other players any information on how I play or what hands I play. Keep em guessing LOL :D

Always love it when others show their cards and I will take notes on them such as the guy that loves to show his bluff with his 2 - 7 off suit --

Good Luck to you at the tables !

Cheers :D:beer:

It may be okay playing online, but I never show my cards in a live game. Reason being if someone thinks they have a read on you, and you show and they were right in what they were thinking, then you just gave them a boatload of info.

For myself, I don't show my cards because

1. I would give information away

2. I don't see the advantages of the occasional show.

I do not show my hand because I feel that he should have to pay me if he want to know!

Showing your cards can be part of one strategy, not just "for fun" or "I'm so kind take a look Im not bluffing" :D. If you know how to use this strategy it can really help sometimes

If a Player has a streak of bad luck and i feel like i can tilt him by showing a bluff I will try it otherwise its not worth giving away information.

It depends, if I think it may cause you to tilt, I will.
