How do you play Full House Poker?

I continue to play my fair share of Full House Poker—though nowhere near as much as pre-release—and I am a tad curious as to how everyone else [you] plays the game. I don't know about you—the point of this entire brief article—but I never show my hand unless my opponent(s) follows me down the river. And by the "follow," I don't mean anything related to Twitter, though the idea of Jesus' followers using Twitter and spreading his word via trends makes me chuckle with every bone above my belt buckle.

Back to business, how do you play a hand in Full House Poker? Do you go all in like a madman, regardless of your card's quality? Do you accidently fold when you can continue with a simple check? Have you ever turned off your console in hopes your horrible hand/bet will not be counted? Have you ever thought a background sound was your doorbell and even convinced yourself to check? I want to hear your answers, but I don't deserve them without answering myself. So, without further ado, my answers are no, no, no, and yes.

Let me leave you with a movie recommendation: Rounders. It is a fantastic poker film with a hilarious Malkovich outburst at the end. Watch it. Love it. Laugh uncontrollably. -- P.S. Do not watch that clip if you haven't seen the film; it absolutely ruins everything.
