Default Re: Maths Question.

ok, so when we push and he always calls, we make ((pot equity*pot) - shove)

(.375*200)-96 = -21$

now we add fold equity, x = the % of time he has to fold (1-x = the times he calls obv)

when he calls we win -21$, when he folds we win 14$

breakeven point:

[(1-x)*((.375*200) - 96)]+x*14=0
[(1-x)*-21]+x*14=0
-21+21x+14x=0
35x=21
x=21/35=.60

he has to fold >60% of the time for your push to be correct

math doublecheck plz? ^^
