Was just watching some poker vids.
On the river when villain faces a bet or gets raised etc. there is sometimes commentary that goes like "Hero has to be right x% of the time to call this bet in order to profit". How do we calculate this?

hey
bet / (pot + bet)
e.g. if the pot is 100 and villain bets 50, we need 50 / (150 + 50) = 25% equity to break even
or if the pot is 100 and villain bets pot, we need 100 / (200 + 100) = 33.33% equity to break even
hope that helps
