I started playing poker seriously this year and did not know there were so many math in poker. Yesterday afternoon I was reading about the fold equity and reaches the conclusion that we should risk more the higher the percentage of the pot regarding our stack. I will also continue analyzing it.

Important topic. It is very important to know the villain's tendency, stack size, and other information to use this technique. In fold freerolls the fold equity is very low.

Yes I agree. The theme of fold equity in poker is always combined from complex analyze situation at the table.
Fold equity into Cash Games are different thing then FE into MTTs. Different factors, different adjustments.


Poker is very complex game, the more I study it the more I understund I have alot to learn.

Fold equity is the chance of obtaining a fold after a re-raise a raise 3 4 Bet Bet until all when in more chance of pulling the pot for your move fold more profitable
However for that what counts is the ability to be misleading in semi bluffs or pure bluffs and the technique to play in a position to force a fold equity of the villain

The article is very interesting, I confess that I do not know anything about the fairness of the folds, I will try to investigate more on this subject. So far, what I do is very simple "I bet strong and I hope you retire"
