I never show, but thats just me; however, I can see your point about creating an image. These guys though.....they were showing about every third hand as they were in almost every hand. I can pretty much guarantee that they were not creating a table image. They were just being big jackasses that probably have never actually won a sit n go.

Yeah, in home games I show occasionally to preserve an image or create one. But in online games I generally just have automuck on. Its too much of a hastle to click show or muck every hand after the hand is over. I also dont really think that people put that much effort into reading you online, or atleast not on the limits i play on

In home games, I'll show sometimes because I'm usually playing w/friends and such.

Online - never, ever, ever.

i will show when i think that it can put someone on tilt, either online or in a home game. this isnt very often, and most of the time i just use the auto-muck.

i bluff and show much more often live than i do online. i think the psychological effects of it live are much worse, and thus the opponent tilt factor goes up significantly.

I am usually automuck, but I occasionaly show a bluff so they might use that info later to call when I have a monster hand.
