Insure yourself against unpleasant bad beats and don't be afraid to go all-in
All poker players are familiar with the situation when the opponent gets one out from the deck and the pot replenishes someone else's stack. And even if the effect of dispersion is smoothed out over a long distance, such bad beats are always very sad and can throw off even experienced players.
Pokerbet takes care of its players' nervous system. Meet the new All-in Cashout feature. Now, when going all-in, you can immediately take the part of the pot that corresponds to the strength of your hand, and not rely on a successful outcome of the current hand.
Please note! The feature is only available at the cash tables of No-Limit Hold'em and Omaha. The decision to use or reject All-in Cashout is made by the player themselves.
What is All-in Cashout?
The new option allows a player to immediately take a part of the pot that corresponds to the strength (equity) of the player's hand. It is activated only if all the remaining players went all-in and opened their cards preflop, on the flop, or on the turn.
The pot that a player can take using All-in Cashout is calculated using the following formula:
(pot size - rake - allocations to the Cash Drop pool) *EV*99%,
where EV is the equity (the share of the pot, conditionally corresponding to the mathematical probability of the player's hand to win the hand). Equity takes into account the odds of both winning and splitting the pot.
The player takes 99% of the part of the pot that corresponds to the strength of their hand, the room gets 1% as a commission for using the option. The amount that can be withdrawn using the new feature is displayed already taking into account the commission after the activation of All-in Cashout, and it immediately replenishes the poker player's stack.
The player who activated the All-in Cashout option receives their share of the pot regardless of the outcome of the hand and does not participate in the pot draw.
If poker player rejects the All-in Cashout, then they participate in the draw according to the usual rules and receive the pot or part of it, depending on the outcome of the hand. If the player who rejected the All-in Cashout wins, then they takes the entire bank, and the player who made the All-in Cashout receive their share of the bank, which is paid to them by the room. If a player declined All-in Cashout and lost the hand, they get nothing.
Example 1
At the Hold'em boost cash table with blinds 1/2 UAH, the players went preflop with pocket AA and 22. Each of them deposited 100 UAH into the pot, the total pot amounted to 200 UAH, respectively. Both players decided to take All-in Cashout in order to immediately take their share of the pot due to them, and not rely on luck. A player with pocket aces has an equity of 83% and a player with pocket deuces has 17%. The rake in this hand will be 10 UAH (5% of the 200 UAH bank), the contribution to the Cash Drop pool will be 1 uhy (0.5% of the 200 UAH bank).
The player with AА will get (200 UAH - 10 UAH - 1 UAH)*82.22%*99% = 153.8 UAH;
The player with 22 will get (200 UAH - 10 UAH - 1 UAH)*17.78%*99% = 33.3 UAH
Example 2
At the Hold'em boost cash table with blinds 1/2 UAH, two players went preflop with pocket AK and 22. Each of them deposited 100 UAH into the pot, the total size of the pot was 200 UAH. The player with deuces decided to make an All-in Cashout, the player with AK declined the All-in Cashout. The equity of a player with 22 is 52%, and that of a player with AK is 48%. The rake in this hand will be 10 UAH (5% of the 200 UAH bank), the contribution to the Cash Drop pool will be 1 UAH (0.5% of the 200 UAH bank).
If the player with 22 wins the hand, they will receive (200 UAH - 10 UAH - 1 UAH)*52.65%*99% = 98.5 UAH, the player with AK will receive nothing, the bank will be seized by the room.
If the player with AK wins the hand, they will receive the entire pot, and the player with 22 will still receive a payout from the room in the amount of 98.5 UAH.
The All-in Cashout option can be disabled in the game client settings. Then the cashout will be automatically rejected in all hands.
1. If in addition to the main pot, there are side pots in a hand, then All-in Cashout is calculated for all pots claimed by the player.
2. If the player has not made their choice within the time allotted for making the decision, then All-in Cashout is automatically rejected.
3. Equity is determined with an accuracy of 1%.
4. The rules can be edited or updated at any time.
