Default Re: A quick question about equity

Now to factor in folding equity. Let's say he will fold to our checkraise or our subsequent turn bet 20% of the time.

This assumption is absurdly optimistic. If you do not immediately see why, I suggest you spend less time on fuzzy equity considerations and more time playing poker.

I am quite aware of the likelihood the typical opponent will fold in a scenario like this. My question was intended to stimulate a discussion of the magnitude of the impact of folding equity on the original question and the parameter of 20% is intended to be optimistic. I appreciate your suggestion and I will try to up the amount of poker that I play. Averaging only 50K hands per month has clearly failed to equip me to post properly.
