On Revealing Hands

Author: Texas Holdem
Category: Texas Holdem FAQ

Hello,

For about 8 months now, I’ve been playing Poker, mainly online. I’ve been playing well I believe however I know I still can go places in my career.
Now I want to know, do you show your cards either after a hand win or lose all the time? I don’t show my hand that often and if in case I do show it, I make sure I would win a hand or else have a good one. When I’m bluffing, I also never reveal anything. But if I can feel I could win with a strong hand, I like to show what I have. I believe doing this may just make others think of calling or raising a bluff on me.

Any advice on revealing hands?

Your help will be much appreciated.

Warm regards,
Luke
Luke,

I never show my bluffs. I will show an occasional strong hand, especially if it’s late in the tournaments. I want the players to think I am always playing tight and that I have the goods whenever I am in the pot.
