I never show my hands without a showdown, although I try to see what my opponents played with

It happens, but rarely. For example, I play one-on-one with an opponent, I raise and he folds, and I don't think I'm bluffing, I show that I have a really good hand, especially if my fellow countrymen play with me or other good players

From time to time, there will be a desire to show off one or another collected combination to opponents, but is it worth it. Once again, by showing your cards, you will give the opponent more information about your game strategy, which they try to hide in every possible way in poker. You cannot be sure that that a particular player is not playing a hand just to find out how you play. Perhaps he did not receive any clear information, and then you opened up and showed him everything for free.

When I'm sure that I'm going to win and the other players folds I show my cards as a sign of respect and congratulations to the other player, but I do that only off my opponent is a good player who respect the others! It's like "hey mate, you did it well, congrats"

I show my cards when I win a few times but never show when I bluff unless they fold to a bet as if to appear as a bluff.

I never show cards myself, and I advise you. The one who shows helps to understand his game!

I used to show my cards when I see that it was difficult for a participant to make a choice. Now I'm only doing it out of respect...That is, not too often.

For me there is no game without bluff and I never show my cards, I don't want to confuse anyone with anything or create any advantage, I play my game and I don't care much about others, if I want to win something I want to either on my hand, on my decisions...

When I started playing poker, I often showed my hands but then I was told that I shouldn't do it because you give too much information about yourself. And now I don't show my cards anymore or very rarely, anyone who wants to see should pay for it. After all, nothing is for free. But I'm happy when people show their cards because this gives me more information about their game and these so-called bluffers often give me exactly the information I need at the table. But sometimes I don't care what people show because I play my cards and not their cards. Although, of course, you should always pay attention to how the others play at the table

I used to sometimes show cards on PokerStars, but there is a time delay when you select this option and the hands go slower, so i chose never to show in the settings...
Good point, wasnt aware of this setting option. Thanks!

Usually I don't show my cards. The exception would be the bubble moment when I don't want to risk my strong hand by calling an all-in.

I used to do it , not anymore . Now I have disabled this feature . It has no use . I don't think you can affect others' game by showing some cards just to mislead their judgement about your true poker decisions or hand ranges . I do not wait for other player to see if he shows his cards , I do not care

Yes, It's a good move for strategy.
I used to show my cards. Now I don't show. If anyone wants to know if I'm bluffing or not, let them check.
