well you show you folded idiot end of the straight. He might not show and if he does show its unlikely to be any hand that cant be played reasonably in this manner, like if he shows T9,99, QJ AsQs,KQ what real info do you gain. The only info you gain is to either massage or deflate your own ego by finding out if you folded best hand
I already said showing might be ok if you can exploit the perception it creates, I doubt people will try bluff you off much too often 30BB deep though

ty Mate.
I usually show in these situations, for multiple reasons. Usually it talks them into showing anything but a bluff. It also creates an image and i usually try to stay aware to my image on the table.
the whole reason why i post this is to learn. I feel i have alot to learn and i want to do that. Although i need to work on my off the table antics first.
Didn't showing your hand cost you tour tournament pretty much at SPT Leeds? Maybe just put showing your hand down as a bad idea and stop doing it altogether. Posted by DOHHHHHHH
that was showing a bluff with complete adrenalline and then completely forgot i showed it.
Best way to see most peoples cards if you fold in a hand is an easily repeated phrase..... "Nice bluff idiot/douche/muppet/clown/luckbox/donkey" . Pick any or all of last word Shocking how often it works. Posted by AMYBR
great advice. ty mate. May adopt this into my live game too.
Seriously though you can say many comments of this nature, but in a friendly way that will have the same result.
Most pure recreational players hate their image to be challenged and will often seek to reinforce their quality hand with a show. Also alot of people dont need much encouragment to show a bluff
