The Nash equilibrium in poker is a state where each player is playing their optimal strategy given the other players' strategies. In other words, if all players are playing a Nash equilibrium strategy, no player can improve their expected outcome by changing their strategy unilaterally. In simpler terms, it's a state where no player can do better by deviating from the strategy they have chosen, given the strategies of the other players at the table.

In a game like poker, the Nash equilibrium can be reached through careful analysis of the game's rules, the possible ranges of hands held by each player, and the strategies used to bet, raise, or fold. By identifying the Nash equilibrium, a player can ensure that they are playing an optimal strategy at the table and, in theory, maximize their expected winnings over the long term.
