Will you show?

I think yeah they do it to make sure they made the correct fold. Usually done by people who call too often and are trying to learn to fold good hands

.

Personally I love it when I think for a few seconds after someone bets hard into me, and they show me the nuts... Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, but I never ask for them to show...

Does anyone predict what the other guy has before folding? It has happened a few times where I have KK and flop/turn is 55aa and they'll check raise me and I'll occasionally say, "555aa?" and then muck. they show I'm right

. I hate it when people always do these predictions tho.

Cheers,

I don't mind when they try to guess the other guys cards, as long as the pot is heads up at this point. But the begging to see the cards and holding up the game drives me nuts. Of course there is always the guy who folds then tells what he had and nobodu believes him.

Oh for sure. People who say what they mucked when the hand is still happening are the worst

.

You'd be surprised how many people who fold and say what they folded aren't lying... I of course think they gain zero by saying it, and actually lose a little edge, but whatever

.

This should get you booted for a while for sure. Usually beat up in a casiono, and well deserved.

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

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.

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

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
