Pot Odds Reference Table

Common bet sizes translated into the equity required for a simplified break-even call when no future betting, rake or tournament payout effects are modeled.

Original reference · Mathematical derivation

For each row, the opponent bets the listed fraction of the pot and your call equals that bet. Break-even equity = call ÷ final pot after your call.

Example: half-pot bet

With 100 in the pot, an opponent bets 50 and you call 50. The final pot is 200, so the 50 call is 25% of the final pot. The simplified break-even threshold is therefore 25% equity.

Limitations

This table is a price reference, not a complete call decision. Future betting, rake, implied odds, reverse implied odds, range uncertainty and tournament money-value effects can change the correct strategic action.
