Default Re: Pot Equity

Pot equity is the chance that your hand will be the winning hand at showdown, represented as a percentage. If you have the best hand on the flop, your pot equity is very likely to be greater than your fair share of the pot based on the number of players in the hand (fair share against 2 opponents = 33% since you are one of three players in the hand). If you are drawing to the best hand, you pot equity basically represnts the chance that you will draw to the winning hand by the river.
