Default Re: Very taboo. What do I do?

I make my decisions based upon pot odds, reads and other criteria and once I decide to fold, I don't care what the next card is or what you had in your hand. It is a mistake to give me more information and showing one card is a tell. It tells me one of two things and I will watch your play and decide which one is accurate. Either you are watching way to much poker on TV and are not as good a player as you think or you are trying in influence my future decisions.

I will not view it as a sign of respect. If you want to show respect, show both cards.

By your own admission, you played A6 and wanted to make him think you had a stronger hand than you actually did and got upset when your junk hand was exposed. There is nothing respectful about that.

Yes, that guy was out of line by touching your cards but don't piss on my leg and try to tell me it is raining. You were not showing respect, you were trying to make him think you had a very strong hand.
