    Wow, your really over thinking this. First of all, under $25NL means don't account for FE ever. Second, stop thinking about anything other than equity if he folds or calls/raises together. Him raising is a whole new calculation.

    Just use pot size, bet size and how often he needs to fold vs your equity if he doesn't

    Perhaps but i want to build charts so that i can play perfectly versus robotic players which is most every player at 2nl. Or atleast a big chunk of them.

    that

    I don't think it's bad at all to do all this crap so you understand it, but watch out when you try to apply it because the tendency is to expect waaaay too much fold equity.

    I shot myself in the foot a couple of times the last couple of days when I played some 50NL after 20000 hands of 200NL. People don't fold. Even the winningest regs are huge stations. - More so on stars than on Tilt cuz the general tendency there seems to be to supergaybet when you have the nuts and shovel in money when you have air.
