Default Re: Cutting Off Set Equity

When he wins he'll get his raise + blinds + your stack, which is $211. He'll do this ~11.76% of the time. It will cost him X to call your reraise.

EV(of calling reraise) = -X*(0.8824) + $211*(0.1176)

Since you want to make him indifferent set this equal to 0 and solve for X. X = $28.12. He should have to call $28.12 which means you need to make it $36.12.

You actually have to raise to an amount slightly less than this because sometimes you'll crack his set.
