Any time you bet or raise there is a % chance that everyone left in the pot will fold and thus you win the pot right there.

Sometimes this % is low, sometimes it's high.

Thus when people are discussing fold equity its basically the chance everyone will fold and you'll take it there.

Semi-bluffing is the best idea to illustrate this.

board is T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

You and one opponent, you should bet out at the pot. You currenlty have nothing but there is chance he might fold, in addition if he does not you very well might improve (over cards/flush draw).
