I am hearing a lot of players say that when they cbet 1/2 pot with air, it only has to work 33% of the time to show a profit.
Why is this?
When I look at the situation I think the 1/2 pot c bet has to work more than 50% of the time to show a profit.
If the pot were 100 and I c-bet 50, I see it as I am paying 50 to win 100. If it works I get $100 (2x50) and if it fails, I lose 50.
So where does the 33% come from?
