Live-game "creative betting"

[zoltan]

OK, so I'm in Vegas last weekend (second weekend in a row), and playing 3-6 LHE. First session, got excitable, lost about half my stack in 30 minutes. Got up, took a deep breath, came back later that evening intent on playing tight and moderately aggressive. Tripled my stack against a table full of calling stations. And so it went most of the weekend, except one older guy who observed I only played big hands (which was true for the most part). That's fine, but then he demands I show my cards EVERY SHOWDOWN I'm in whether he is or not, pointing out my tendencies to all of the other players, and generally making my life miserable. While I'm not maximizing my winnings, I'm paying for my hotel room, which is fine by me. Other than changing table (I did), any other insight into "creative betting" that wouldn't cause me to lose my stack? Better a rock than a fish, unless someone wants to correct me on this.
