Poker Dictionary: Equity

Example

One card to come. You win on 12 of 44 rivers.

Your equity

equity
= 12 ÷ 44

27.3%

Villain's cards are known, so 44 cards can come.

In rupees

equity × pot
= 12/44 × ₹200

₹54.55

Your average share of a ₹200 pot.

But

Equity isn't profit.

Compare it to the price of the call. That's pot odds.
