I'm just wondering what everybody's opinion is on showing or mucking. Me personally never like showing my cards, whether i've just bluffed or had the nutz. What are your opinions on show or muck. And if you feel showing is better please explain.

me too, usually always muck/auto muck is the first box i click when i sit at a table. sometimes i want to show when i just bluffed to piss the other off but i think if i do that it would be hard to bs them again? i dunno just my personal opinion.
If you show a bluff, then yes it can be hard to bluff again but it's potentially very strong, especially if you rabbit what looks to be a bluff, and then have a really strong hand later on. Then they might think you're bluffing and you can take them for a big stack!Quote:

I like to show every hand regardless of what happens. If i lose and im not in the pot i reach in the muck and pull them out just to say look i would have had two pair. Actually i like to mostly muck and sometimes show a bluff or two just to get the game out of the must if the percent plyrs per hand is low or pot size is relatively low because i like aggressive games not a bunch of knits. but i never really show my made hands unless im card dead and i feel like im going to have more fold equity to make it a lucrative adventure. im pretty sure, correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure that chip reese 'allegedly' never showed down his hands. but he doesn't play off getting everyone at the table fired up, he was just a little trickster
