What Is WSD (Won at Showdown)?

W$SD (Won money at ShowDown) measures a player's win rate specifically in hands that go all the way to showdown, as opposed to hands won earlier through folds. A low W$SD can indicate a player is calling down too light or bluff-catching poorly, while comparing it against WTSD helps evaluate overall showdown decision-making.

Examples

1

A player with a 55% W$SD, indicating they generally have the best hand when they reach showdown.

2

A calling station with a low W$SD despite a high WTSD, suggesting they're going to showdown with too many losing hands.

Strategy Tips

Use WSD alongside WTSD to evaluate a player's showdown tendencies -- a high WTSD paired with a low WSD often signals a calling station who goes too far with weak holdings. Don't overreact to WSD alone without a large sample, since a small number of showdown hands can easily skew the stat. Compare your own WSD over time as a rough check on your bluff-catching and river calling decisions, though it should be considered alongside overall win rate. Combine WSD with WWSF for a fuller picture of a player's post-flop profitability, since some players win primarily through folds rather than at showdown.
