Re: Pot equity questions
[ QUOTE ]
Does anyone have any comments on using the amount you come up with as a result of pot equity (i.e. $360 as a result of 36% equity in a $1000 pot) as a rough guide to the range of betting you should make if you haven't hit your hand yet?

Once again, there is no reason to do this. It is a bad idea. Sometimes you will come up with a reasonable play by doing this, just as you will sometimes be right if you always say it is noon when someone asks you what time it is. However, if you are trying to learn to play well, you should drop that idea and look for something else. If you think SSHE told you to bet that much and no more, you are wrong. SSHE says nothing like that, and the SSHE authors wouldn't say something like that even if they were talking about NL. It is often right to bet much more than your estimate of your expected share of the pot.
