Default Re: formula for calling bets based on outs

[ QUOTE ]

Im trying to make a bet that results in the bet being the identical % of the resultant pot (with n callers) to the % chance of me hitting my outs on the next card.


[/ QUOTE ]

so you want:

chance of hitting = bet / pot + bet

which is

bet = chance * pot / (1-chance)

so if you have a .25 chance of hitting in a 10 bet pot

bet = .25 * 10 / .75

bet = 3.333


there's 10 in the pot, you bet 3.3333 your opponent calls the pot is now 13.33333. 3.3333 = 13.33333*.25
