## Definition
Geometric Sizing, Often Called Equal-Percentage Betting, Is Calculating The Exact Bet Percentage Of The Pot Needed Across The Remaining Streets So That All Remaining Effective Chips Go In On The River Using The Same Fraction Each Street. Solvers Frequently Select Geometric Sizings When Pressing A Strong Nut Advantage With Polarized Value And Bluff Ranges.

- [SPR (Stack To Pot Ratio)](https://smarter.poker/glossary/spr) ([Markdown](https://smarter.poker/glossary/spr.md)): SPR, The Stack To Pot Ratio, Is The Effective Stack Divided By The Pot At The Start Of A Street, Usually The Flop. A Low SPR, Below About Three, Means Top Pair Is Often Worth Getting All In. A High SPR, Above Ten, Rewards Hands That Can Make The Nuts And Punishes One Pair Hands That Overcommit.
- [Nut Advantage](https://smarter.poker/glossary/nut-advantage) ([Markdown](https://smarter.poker/glossary/nut-advantage.md)): Nut Advantage Means One Player's Range Holds More Of The Strongest Possible Hands On The Current Board Than The Opponent's Range Does. It Is Different From Range Advantage, Which Compares Average Strength. A Player With A Nut Advantage Can Use Large Bets And Overbets, Because The Opponent Rarely Holds Hands Strong Enough To Punish Them.
- [Polarized Range](https://smarter.poker/glossary/polarized-range) ([Markdown](https://smarter.poker/glossary/polarized-range.md)): A Polarized Range Is Made Of Very Strong Hands And Bluffs, With Few Medium Strength Hands In Between. Polarized Ranges Pair With Large Bets And Overbets, Because Strong Hands Want The Pot To Grow And Bluffs Need The Fold Equity. The Medium Hands That Are Left Out Are Checked, Where They Keep Their Showdown Value.
- [Value Bet](https://smarter.poker/glossary/value-bet) ([Markdown](https://smarter.poker/glossary/value-bet.md)): A Value Bet Is A Bet Made Because Worse Hands Will Call It Often Enough To Show A Profit. The Test Is Simple: If The Opponent Calls, Are You Ahead Of Most Of The Hands They Call With? Value Bets Pay For Bluffs In A Balanced Strategy, And Missing Them Costs More Money Than Most Players Realize.
