I like to show a hand or two at the beginning of a game, so the donks who called me know not to mess around. After that, I can get away with almost anything. It really helps me as the table tightens down and I can nick pots left and right, when the blinds are worth stealing.
I seldom show a bluff. I do it on occasion, to tilt a strong player (next time I won't be bluffing, ofcourse). Most of the times, I'll be paid off. I only show the bluff when my opponent is sufficiently crippled, though.
