Will you show?

[sjay2k]

I show quite a lot, usually to put people on tilt (is there any other reason?)

[BrianSwa]

if you getting poeple on tilt by showing them then they suck as players to get that mad. The other reason you show is either give image of a loose or tight player.

[sjay2k]

I think that even good players can be put on tilt.

[BrianSwa]

maybe it all depends I guess. Most will just take notes on you mentally it helps them to read you when you show your cards so why give away free information.

There was another thread about this in which I argued against ever showing, unless it is a home game and you are goofing around with buddies. But I'm curious about if this worked for you. Did people tilt as a result of seeing your hand? Or just as the thread suggests, just make a note of it for the next time they run into you?

yeah its either that or they say - what kicker have you got - ive got a 7, does that beat you

i dont mind chat at the tables but i ignore any references about the actual game in play
