Won $ at showdown % question
What is good? Mine is at 48% at 3/6. Can someone tell me what this means. My hunch is im calling down too much in situations where i think im being bluffed off the pot and i have something like AK (or two overcards). my W $ at SD% at 2/4 is like 56 or something. Should it ever be below 50%?

Re: Won $ at showdown % question
A low W$SD percentage usually indicates one of two things:
1) You are calling/betting the river too often with the worst hand 2) You are having a run of crap luck Most of the time I'd say W$SD should be low 50's for a winning player (I think?). Given that you're not that far off, I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you already have quite a few hands under your belt. In that case, be conscious of calling down with AK UI against "bluffs" too much, but don't fold to one bet when you have legitimate hands. Just as your W$SD figure can be too low, it can be too high as well.
