How much money you personally contributed into the pot doesn't have much bearing on pot equity. Once you contributed it, it's not your money anymore.

That isn't what he meant either. He was referring to future bets, not money already in the pot.

Sorry, that's what you were asking, not him.

When he talks about calling, he is referring to your decision on whether or not to call. If you have a 35% equity and 5 people will put money in, then you are contributing 20% to win 35%. He said nothing about money already in the pot.

Yes, but that's not pot equity either. Your equity is the 35% that you're talking about. The 20% has nothing to do with it, other than deciding whether or not to make the call (or raise or fold)
