I just won a single table
PokerStars tourney, and all during the heads up, my opponent kept telling me that I was a suckout, didn't know what I was doing, and actually demanded that I apologize to him for saying that he bluffed a lot pre-flop. (He asked why I called the flop with K8, I answered. I did catch a king, but his hand was nothing to write home to mom about.)
Here are the stats, direct from the
PokerStars e-mail. Tell me what you guys think. Based on these stats, did I suck out, or did I play well? I think the fact that I won 65% of the pots at showdown says that I played pretty consistently but I'm interested in your opionions.
