Prot palas shouldn't rape you since they don't really have much of a burst potential alone,but it should be noted that you should never,ever try to duel one.Since you just won't win.You just won't.Why you might ask...
Because unless he goes AFK in the middle of the duel to take a leek and then breaks a leg on the way to the toilet just for his ambulance truck to get smashed in a car accident later,you won't win until *
Soon
* comes.
Also,rogues are possible to beat unless he outgears you,just keep the flame shock and searing up and slowly burn him,save trinket for Blind,anticipate his kidneys with stoneclaw and you've got yourself a duel.
DKs have so much self healing that you're not even allowed to dream about beating them.

1v1 is dependant on the area in which you fight. If your fighting a ranged class, chances are you will have trouble unless you have a trusty pillar to hug.
Deal with hunters by spamming frostshock and keeping within minimum range (it is possible through a combination of ghostwolf kite, frostshock, and earthbind totem.)
Priests are.. meh your probably going to lose unless you can seriously LoS, and even then it will just be a long fight. Don't duel priests.
Any class with self-heals that occur from dpsing (paladins, deathknights, affliction warlocks (oh god affliction!)) is pretty much a no-go.
As for other classes, you can usually beat them just by slowly killing them with a flameshock DoT, throwing a lavaburst occasionally. Don't use your lightning spells unless you are completely sure they won't be interrupted or you'll get locked out of your heals. I often beat mages just because they go OOM trying to kill me. Still, restoration is not built for dueling, it will get tiresome after awhile.

Properly
glyphed
they have horrendous burst potential. Last I recall my guild's prot tank crits for 8k+ with this thing on.
And talented, that hit also silences.

But still as a PvP shaman with 24k HP there's no way a protection paladin could or should "burst" me down in a duel...

You obviously mean "burst" in a different context to "dealing lots of damage in a very short amount of time".

I'm kinda used to "burst" meaning "Release Spirit" in Wrath...
