After bluffing the flush or straight when the turn or river card came, is it worth showing? cause when you get your real hand like a flush or straight, you will have callers when you bet!

imo it doesnt make a big difference in most situations. if you show, some ppl will call your next made hand, thinking your bluffing the scare card again, others will call, when u don´t show because they´re curious.

remember that your giving alot more information when you show your cards. your opponents will not only see, that your willing to take a stab, when a scary card falls, but observant players will notice what cards you are willing to play in given position the way you played it.

I have automuck on. Why give anybody any more information about the way you play than you have to? If somebody asks me to show or tell me what I had I'll tell them in the chatbox...and bullshit at least 50% of the time...

Showing is for showoffs. There's lots of noobie advice out there that tells you it's a good idea, but if you're bluffing/c-betting enough you'll get caught once in a while anyway. The rest of the time you should keep them guessing.
