What is a match equity table?
A match equity table is a chart that tells your chances of winning a match from a given score. Here is an example: Match equity tables are expressed in terms of each player’s points to go. Suppose you are leading 2-0 in a match to 5. We say that you are 3-away and your opponent is 5-away. The same away score would apply if you were leading 4-2 in a match to 7, or 6-4 in a match to 9, etc. According to the chart, if you are 3-away and your opponent is 5-away, you have a 66% chance of winning the match.
