Roland,

I'm not sure I understand the bolded sentence.

On 6th street though, you have LESS than 50% equity. So you lose money with every bet you put in. That doesn’t mean that you’re pot equity somehow mysteriously is decreased. Pot equity has nothing to do with bets, only with your cards.

Fifth street pot = $13.

Hero: EV = 0.574, pot equity = $7.46

Sixth street pot = $21.

Hero: EV = 0.404, pot equity = $8.48

So, even though Hero’s EV has decreased, his pot equity has actually increased. Is this what you meant?

I didn’t mean that it hasn’t decreased between 5th and 6th street. It obviously has.
I don’t know if I understand Ray correctly, but he seems to be saying that there SDMs pot equity would decrease if he bet 6th. That isn’t the case though; he does, however, lose $$$ if he bets.
The reason this is so confusing - I think - is that when I talk of pot equity, I’m thinking about percentages but Ray is thinking of $$$. Although it really doesn’t matter - it’s really the same, % or $, who cares, it can be misleading.
I’m pretty tired though, so maybe I’m missing something.
