Re: Can someone show me the math for this..

Ok that makes sense, so basically if I check I'm losing even more expectation then when I bet right?

Actually, you're still gaining expectation with every bet that goes in, and he's losing expectation - just not enough to make it unprofitable to call (as long as he still has the odds). If you are 90% to win, 90% of every bet that goes into the pot belongs to you, regardless of whether or not your opponent has the odds to call. So by firing out that $4 bet, and him calling you've made about $3.20 (you "win" $3.60 of his bet, but 10% of your bet - or .40 - is his share).
