What are the pot odds on a pot-sized bet?

A pot-sized bet lays you 2-to-1, so you need about 33% equity to call.

33.3% Equity needed to call
2 : 1 Pot odds

When the bet equals the pot, you risk 100 to win 200, which is 2-to-1. You now need to win a third of the time. A bare flush or open-ended draw is right at the line on the flop and slightly short on the turn, so position and implied odds start to matter.

Quick tip: Pot-sized bet, 2-to-1, 33% equity needed. The other key number to memorize.
