My favorite are people who show their cards when they're the big blind and everyone folds. I make sure to show them a bluff if I raise them from the SB.

You're one of the players that annoy me. If you never have any intention of showing, turn auto muck on and quit slowing down the game for no reason.


lol... I showed a walk with 63o today... I hope we're cool now.

I never show during online play because I have auto muck turned on. Why waste time showing your cards? Move on the next hand. Time is money remember and the more hands I play, the more profit that comes in.

In a live game, I will sometimes show a couple of hands to establish a certain image. I will still mostly muck my winning hands that aren't called.

I will show it, very rarely, either when I have the nuts and a guy folds, just to say 'good laydown' and to promulgate the idea that I'm a great poker player (hahaha, laughable indeed), or win someone folds to my bluff, I might show them, so I get callers the next time I actually have something.
