Default Re: 67s on the button, 8 to the flop, i flop top pair

I'm having a hard time following discussions like this in the Small Stakes HE forum. General statements like:

[ QUOTE ]
..you have a fair amount of equity.

[/ QUOTE ]

or

[ QUOTE ]
Not to mention that we easily have enough equity on the flop to put a bet in and grow the pot a little.

[/ QUOTE ]

are totally unsupported. If another poster says, "..you don't have much equity" then who wins the argument?

At least this poster tried to quantify it:

[ QUOTE ]
Our equity against 7 completely random hands is ~18.2%. The random hands equity is ~11.7%.

[/ QUOTE ]
but what does that mean? Is the equity against 7 random hands 18.2% or 11.7%?

As for this statement:

[ QUOTE ]
Our opponents won't have random hands when they call our bets.

[/ QUOTE ]

it seems to me if the opponents don't have random hands, then the hero's equity is even less. So, how does making that statement support the argument that the hero has plenty of equity to bet/raise?

Confuzzled.
