EV learning

I guess looking into the concept of pot odds is much more simple, if I understand your question correctly.

You can also look at the overview I prepared which looks into the maximum bet sizes you can call with a specific holding/draw:

Pot bet sizes and draws

Hi forum, I am not yet too quick in calculating Pot Odds in real time, so I tried to make a table / list for me with max bet sizes I can call with the respective draw. I thought I'd share with the forum and also any feedback/corrections appreciated. Draw Type #Outs %Win Pot Odds Max bet...

So I started learning about how to calculate EV on river turn and river as defender and as attacker any of you guys have any tips on how to have a more clear mind ?
As of right now I calculate the percentage that I should win and multiply it for the amount of chips that I win plus the percentage that i would lose multiplyed by the amount of money that i would lose like (0,38X200$)+(0,62X-100$)

Maybe someone stops by here

EVH,E =max(EVH,A, EVH,D)

When calculating EV Max, you compare two EVs: the expected value of a fold and the expected value of an all-in.

But is the fold's EV always 0? If so, an SB all-in would always be profitable, so I must be misunderstanding something.

The all-in when lost is minus EV 0 is much better than minus. Solver will show minus EV returns if you have strategy plus EV selected

Yeah, I think I get that. I saw this formula in a book, but I don't understand how the fold EV is calculated. For example, if you're in the blind or the small blind and you fold, is the fold EV -0.5BB?

If you raise to 5BB on the river and your opponent goes all-in, is the fold EV -5? I didn't understand how CallEV and FoldEV are calculated—from which point does FoldEV start?
