Default Re: Folding equity

If you put a raise or bet in expecting that not all of your opponents will fold but that some of them will (ex. You are in the SB having flopped top pair and you know the button is going to bet, a check/raise will squeeze out the people in betwen you) then this is really not a measurable fold equity example. This play would certainly increase your pot equity whether or not you have the best hand.

Fold Equity is really meant to be a quantifiable number that adds to the value of your hand. If you have nothing it may be the only value of your hand. As a semi-bluff it adds value to the current pot equity you have based on your draw.
