You are calling $82.50 to win $121.10

82.5:121.1 = 1:1.46 = you need 40.5% equity

Default Re: Probability Q

pot= 16.5+11+11+82.5= 121.

121 to 82.5 = 1 to 1.466666 = you are getting one and a half to one. one and a half to one is the same as 3 to 2. 3 to 2 is %40 to %60. you need to be slightly more than %40 to have the correct odds to call.

also, titling stuff in the probability forum "probability q," not so helpful.
