I'll take your word for the 9% number

The first thing I ever did with a match equity table was just memorize a table out to -5 -5. It wasn't that hard and damn useful. After that, when I started expanding my table (all memorization, no Neil's numbers or whatnot) I noted that if you memorize only -1 -7 as 9% ME you then add '7' percent at each step to get the match equity. Explanation isn't clear so take a look:

  • -7 -1 = 9%
  • -7 -2 = 16%
  • -7 -3 = 23%
  • -7 -4 = 30%
  • -7 -5 = 37%
  • -7 -6 = 44%

So the difference between each 7 away score is '7'.

ps. For those of you who read this before I edited it back to its original form, I was in a rush and thought the other way worked and was more clear. Casper pointed out that it didn't so I reverted back to the original way I had this memorized, I was trying to make it easier for others.
