Hi Alec, i love your videos, your are a inspiration to me, thanks to all the content and time and energy spend to make this videos, your blog,.. you keep me with energy to go for my dream (be a poker player), THANKS! You are the man ! ;)
Alec, i think your math is a bit off for pot odds. You said that equity needed = Hero's call / Pot + Villain's bet. (33% = 50 / 100 +50) Shouldn't it be equity = Hero's call / Pot + Villain's bet + Hero's call? (25% = 50 / 100 +50 +50) For example, If Villain bets $100 into a $0 dollar pot, you need to be correct 50% of the time, not 100%
Any advanced math poker books you all suggest? I pretty much know the poker basics and I took a game theory class in college so I should be able to understand it all.
$100 (in pot) + $50 (villains bet) + $50( hero's call) therefore for my $50 in a pot of $200 (total), i need 25% equity to justify calling and not 33%. can anyone clarify the math if it checks out?
so basically, when someone bets pot size, u need at least 33% equity to justify calling via pot odds and if someone bets half pot size, you need at least 25% chance to justify calling via pot odds?
Exactly. Since equity = "% of time you'll win a spot over time (assuming a certain portion of your outs are good or you're good already)", that's why "narrowing ranges" is so important, because you have different equities with the same hand on the same board vs different ranges. GL!

He already added in villains bet to the pot, dont count it. If the pot was 50, and villain bet 50, pot is 100 like he said.
who is this with this incorrect math wth lmaoooo
Bro your math is off.
