What are the pot odds on a 2x pot overbet?
A 2x pot overbet needs about 40% equity to call, which is 1.5-to-1.
40% Equity needed to call
1.5 : 1 Pot odds
A double-pot overbet is a polarizing size that demands 40% equity to call. Almost no single draw clears that bar, so your continuing range narrows to made hands and big combo draws. Folding most draws here is correct.
Quick tip: A 2x pot overbet needs 40% equity. Single draws almost never have it.
