Message: [QUOTE="Luvepoker, post: 6078135, member: 307971"] You will never know the exact equity they have but you can make a educated guess when you do. Take a tight player who hardly plays. He suddenly raises and you call and hit a set. The run out to the turn is 2 4 5 6 no flush. Are you worried about him having straight? Would he really have a 3 here? This is where you can figure out the equity they could have. Lets say he only raises 3 or 4 % of hands. What would he have. Even more he was under the gun. You put him n Aces to jacks and AK and AQ. you have the set of 6's His equity is very likely very small. Lets say he bet the flop and turn. He is tight so he is betting what, the aces to jacks. His estimated equity if your not folding is for 2 outs or about 4%. While this is a easy and simple example you just need to remember its never exact and always an guesstimate. [/QUOTE]
