I almost always have auto-muck on. The only time I showed was when I was playing a short handed tourney that paid 2 places and 3 of us left. Blinds were getting high and I raised a few hands in a row, not all premium hands. I showed them one to back them off and continue to let me steal some blinds. I wanted them to respect my raise. If I didn't show they may call one of my garbage hands just to see and it would cost me much more for the rest of the tourney than if I had just shown them one. I would never show a bluff. People may say it rattles someone, but if you hit a cold run they will take you for all your blinds since they may never believe you. True you may hit a good hand and they will pay you off, but most of my money hasn't been won from good hands, it has been from taking advantage of my position and playing the player, not the cards.
