Why Showing Bluffs Helps

I forgot to add this to the last post. After I showed that huge bluff I picked-up 5d3d in late position. There is a 3x raise with one caller and I call. Flop comes 10,7,3 with one diamond. Original bettor puts out a 40% pot sized bet and there is one caller and I float a call to see if I can get someone off of their hand on the turn. The turn is a 3. Perfect. Original bettor checks, the next guy bets out about 1/3 the pot. I raise 2 1/2 times his bet and he calls. The river is a 2. He checks, I put him all-in and he calls with 9,9.

That's why showing your bluffs helps you out later in the tournament.
