How To Calculate EV: [POT ODDS & EQUITY]

[@PokerCoaching]

You're all-in with K♣Q♣ vs A♥A♦ and the flop comes J♥J♣T♣ The turn is the Q♦ How much equity do you have going to the river?

[@Derwilly123]

(9x♣+ 2xQ + 3x9)*2 = 28% Did I forget something? :D

Hi Jonathan, I just wanted to thank you for all of your insight. After finally deciding to sign up for PokerStars in July, I won my first NLH tournament ($2 Progressive KO Hyper-Turbo) after coming 2nd several times. You by far have helped me the most on my journey and wanted to sincerely thank you for all you do for the poker community. Appreciate you!

Hey John, thanks for being awesome I like the RED a lot more than the GREEN writing I feel it is easier to understand and pay attention with the RED.

Happy to report some progress from my "career" good sir: just in the process of moving up a stake and I still have an edge(usually) now playing 5 euro buyins and I have the confidence and bankroll to do it! Thanks again JL! I cannot say that enough, thanks!😀🦈

Great content Jonathan... Would you mind discussing this from a betting point of view rather than calling point of view. Essentially denying odds to your opponent based on likely range and what you want to deny equity to? I always see this topic covered in terms of calling... But rarely betting.

thanks j little !

Good stuff

Question: Is it correct that you should only multiply outs by 4 if you are allin on the flop ? Because otherwise you may face a second raise on the turn making the call unprofitable in retrospective.

[@mathador7446]

I discussed some pot odds examples with chatgpt and it strictly distinguishes between pot odds (%) and required equity (%) - e.g. 2:1 = 33% (pot odds) = 25% (required equity) - this makes the terminology a bit confusing imo

[@ghostgang4ever]

To make the math on pot odds more ubiquitous and easier to memorize, could you use # of big blinds when calculating pot odds? That way the same math scales with the general stakes of the table? That way instead of having to calculate 1500 into a pot of 8000 you could just use the "same numbers" as a lower stakes game such as 3bb into 16bb or something? I hope that makes sense and I would greatly appreciate the answer

You definitely can, it's the same thing
