Strategy for showing hands in home game. Advice

[zooey123]

Hey everyone,

I'm a newbie (go me), but have set up a regular home game with five of my poker playing friends. They're not brilliant, but solid. They think on about a 2nd level I'd say. So I have a plan...

Choose a line of play for a hand, and do it with a bad hand (nothing), a marginal hand (TPGK) and a good hand (set). I plan on showing them my hand on each occassion, my thinking being, next time I follow that line, they won't know where I stand, given they think about what I have, but not deeper.

Is this a stupid idea? Obviously, it is specific to my home game, but the idea in general...
