Turner's Formula

Turner's Formula
A simple formula devised by Stephen Turner for estimating the match equity (1) at a given score. Expressed as a percent, the leader's match equity E = 50 + (24/T + 3) * D, where T is the number of points (4) the trailer still needs and D is the difference in scores.
