Default Re: What\'s the best way to learn the math behind +/- ev, fold quity, etc?

By +/- Ev I assume you mean equity and odds.

Play. Study. Do some post play analysis. Repeat. Check out the the other forums pertaining to your game level for specific hand scenarios and others insight.

The more you do it the easier it becomes. Pokerstove is a good tool to help with the analysis part.

Fold Equity is a judgement call. There is no "real" specific number. It will vary depending on a number of variables - image, board texture, betting patterns, etc.

And don't be afraid to post up problems and questions, just like you did here.
