I only show when I think it will give my opponent false information.

For example, Let's say I am at a table with mostly loose calling players and a couple tight players. If I find myself in a hand with just the tight players, I will attempt to bluff them with the intention to show it to encourage the loose players to play loose against me. Even if I get caught in the bluff, it can be an investment from them in the future.

The act of bluffing in poker is one of the strategies used to become a winner, now showing the bluff to the villain, it will depend a lot on the table you are playing and who you are playing against. Be aware that you are broadcasting information about how you play to the entire table. But bluffing is an art, for some it works better than others.

I typically do not show my hands. Just a rule I adopted very early on and am sticking with it.

I don't show my bluffs, sometimes I show my cards when I'm running away from play. I don't care when they show the cards, sometimes I don't see it, because I'm already thinking about my mistake

I don't think to show help your game moving forward. It can only be a disanvantage in my mind.

They are very important points.

Whenever I bluff I don't show my cards because the rival player or other players at the table are watching you and in the future they can pay you as long as you lie a lot:eek::eek::eek::eek::p

I prefer not to show a bluff hand (better to leave it in doubt), sometimes I show a hand that I'm folding with Ace

It all depends on the game you are playing at that moment and the reading you have of the other players
to make them doubt your game

It depends on the player, because if I'm not going to end my ble, it goes to the players that they end up using it against me and I'll know how to react later.
Now if it's that crazy player I show him to lose control for good and end up leaning.

I never show my bluff, I think it gives information about you to other players and helps them to get to know your game better.:)

Online I show my cards if I win a big bluff becuase I rarely bluff big, so for the rest of the game when I have a good hand and bet big other player may think it's another bluff and call with a weaker hand.
Live though, never show any cards, because they may have picked up a tell for how you were acting previously in the hand and that could be subconscious information you are giving away.

You have to use it on your favor. Use the information to destabilize your adversary when you need.

Sometimes I show a bluff against irritable, tilt-able players at a table. If I'm playing among new players, usually I don't.

Sometimes it makes sense to show that you are bluffing. Perhaps, in further hands, opponents will start paying more in those moments when you are not bluffing.
