Formula:
The Poker Expected Value (EV) formula helps you assess the long-term profitability of a decision. It's calculated as:
EV = (PWin * AWin) - (PLose * ALose)
- PWin: Your probability of winning the hand (as a decimal, e.g., 0.60 for 60%).
- AWin: The total amount you expect to win if you win the hand (the initial pot + your opponent's bet + your call amount).
- PLose: Your probability of losing the hand (as a decimal, e.g., 0.40 for 40% or 1 - PWin).
- ALose: The amount you stand to lose if you lose the hand (your call amount).
