Hello Guys,
I would just want to ask on how do you calculate (manually) your hand equity against your opponents range when deciding to call or fold a bet especially on the river on live games
I found lots of good stuff here on Cardschat about calculating outs, pot-odds, hand equity pre-flop and putting your opponents on ranges while the hand develop to the river. But I am so confuse on how to use the range you put your opponents in relation to the pot odds and your hand equity before you can consider calling or folding on the final bet on the river.
From what I understand is that on the final call/fold decision, still you will need to calculate the pot odds which is easy since the pot and the amount you call is already in front of you and you just need to do the pot odds calculation, but in order to justify a call is you need to have hand equity in percentage greater than the pot odds percentage right?
So you calculate the hand equity on final bets on river based on your opponents hand range where you put them, not on your outs unlike on what we do on flop and turn, since there are no more streets to come. But how do you determine if your hand has this x amount of percentage against your opponents range?
Here is a quick example:
I often here people saying during the course of a hand review that "I crush mostly his range of hands", but when I look at it there are still like 5 hands or more that can beat the hero, and hero beats like 10-15 hands that are on his opponents range so hero calls.
I do not understand how they calculate their hand equity and weigh their hand into calling against the opponents range. So is there a specific guide on when you beat 10-15 hands that are on your opponents range you call?
I hope this question makes sense, I tried to state my question as clearly as possible since my mind is really clouded about the topic, I just can't understand the math behind calculating or weighing your hand against your opponents range to justify a call or a fold.
Hopefully someone will correct me if my understanding is wrong and will give additional information about this topic.
Thank you very much for your help.
