Three slightly different sizes, but they result in very different final pot sizes. Now if villain calls us down we are actually all in on the river. In this final rendition we bet full pot on each street. Notice when we get called down the final pot size is now $96. In the second rendition we bet a traditional 2/3 pot on each street.
In this first example we value bet ½ pot on each street and the CO calls us down. In this hand we open from MP with A♠K♠, the CO calls, and we see a HU flop of J94. Well, let’s look at an example with 3 different sizing strategies to see how sizes relate to final pot sizes… But how big of a difference is it really? It’s easy to understand that if we were to bet half pot on every street the final pot size would be different than if we would have bet full pot on every street. In this video I’ll show you what pot geometry is, why small changes can make a big impact, and how to use our spreadsheet to practice this on your own.įirst, what is pot geometry? Pot geometry looks at what every dollar put into, or not put into the pot does to the final pot size. Understanding this concept can help you choose better value bet sizes in real-time, which can crucially influence your winrate. Hello, and welcome to today’s Quick Plays video on Pot Geometry.
