Equations on Pot Odds

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response last time. Now I believe I have already figured out the equivalent to your examples of figuring out pot odds:

The equation for finding pot odds based off the pot value is:
(100 * Bet Amount) / %Chance to Hit < Pot Value

The equation for finding pot odds based off the bet amount is:
(%Chance to Hit * Pot Value) / 100 > Bet Amount

For me, the first equation is easier to calculate than the second but actually works tougher in no limit against limit as bets could be any odd number. Second equation is actually harder to compute however works better in no limit.

Anything to say or comment about my equations? I hope I make sense here.

I’ll be looking forward for your response. Thanks a lot!

Regards,
Tim
