Pot share
What your hand expects to win from here as a share of the pot, if both players play the engine's strategy.

- What it means
- The eval bar beside the table fills to your pot share. It is the expected value of your hand from this point, divided by the pot. Folding scores zero, so a hand that would fold every time shows an empty bar.
- How it is calculated
- Each action's EV is weighted by how often the answer takes it, and the total is divided by the pot. It is worked out from your two cards against the range the other player could hold, never from their actual cards.
- Worked example
- In a 10bb pot, a hand whose strategy is worth 6.5bb from here has a pot share of 65%.
- Why it matters
- It shows at a glance how good your spot is, the way an eval bar in chess does, without telling you what the other player holds.
