Default Re: Very taboo. What do I do?

Here is a radical idea, don't be a tool. Show the hand or muck the hand. Only an ass shows one card.

Not a tool and not an ass.

Absolutely nothing wrong with showing one card after a fold when it proves that you had the winning hand (other than giving away information, of course). Generally, it keeps the table (and the fish) happy and helps set up future moves when you want a player to fold.

It's a completely different story if someone is trying to influence your decision in a big pot by showing a card before you make a decision... I don't think that is a bad move either, but it could make you look like an ass.
