    1 - Identify Pot Size
    2 - Idenfity Bet Size
    3 - Determine Equity
    4 - if bet/(2*bet + pot) < our Equity equity -> call (should factor in rake too, but I won't)

    Exact EV
    EV = p(win)*(bet+pot) - p(lose)*(bet)

    Example 1
    UTG: $5 (250 bb)
    MP: $2.37 (118.5 bb)
    CO: $2 (100 bb)
    Hero (BTN): $2.05 (102.5 bb)
    SB: $2.93 (146.5 bb)
    BB: $4.05 (202.5 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is BTN with 7 7
    UTG folds, MP raises to $0.05, CO folds, Hero calls $0.05, SB calls $0.04, BB calls $0.03

    Flop: ($0.20) T 7 5 (4 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, MP bets $0.16, Hero raises to $0.56, 2 folds, MP raises to $2.32 and is all-in, Hero calls $1.44 and is all-in

    The pot is $2.46, the bet is $1.44.

    Villain has a range of {TT+,77,55,AhKh,AhQh,AhJh}, we have 80% equity

    B/(2B+P) = 1.44/(2.88 + 2.46)

    So we need 26.97% equity to be profitable.

    80>26.97 -> it's a call.

    Exact EV wise

    EV = 0.8099*(2*1.44 + 2.46) - 0.1901*(1.44)
    EV = 2.89 (3sf)
