Value betting is when you bet expecting to get called by a weaker hand. There is a number SSH gives you? I think you should value bet only if you figure you will called by a weaker hand 55% of the time. Value betting often comes up on the river where many players miss them. They add a lot of profit. Things like betting with one or two overcards with a pp or betting with middle pair against fish.

Pot equity is how much of the pot you expect to win on average. It is your chances of winning times the size of the pot. This is useful for both made hands and drawing hands. It often helps determine if a value bet is profitable.

And yes, buy a good book. SSH is amazing.
