SOME STUFF TO REMEMBER ( FOR YOU AND ME LOL)

.

.

RULE OF 2 AND 4

After the flop, OUTS X 4 = % ( 9 outs = 36% chance of hitting your cards)

After the turn, OUTS X 2 = % ( 9 outs = 18% chance of hitting your cards)

POT ODDS CALCULATION

If 9 outs, 36%, divide 64 by 36 you get 1.8 (100% minus 36%= 64%)

the pot odds needed to call, is 1.8:1 or better.

Pot 400:200 to call, or, 2:1, good enough to call, IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT!!!

quick refference-

50% - 1:1 or even money

40% - 1.5:1 or 3:2

34% - 2:1

25% - 3:1

20% - 4:1

IMPLIED POT ODDS

Definition

Implied pot odds, or simply implied odds, are calculated the same way as pot odds, but take into consideration estimated future betting. Implied odds are calculated in situations where the player expects to fold in the following round if the draw is missed, thereby losing no additional bets, but expects to gain additional bets when the draw is made. Since the player expects to always gain additional bets in later rounds when the draw is made, and never lose any additional bets when the draw is missed, the extra bets that the player expects to gain, excluding his own, can fairly be added to the current size of the pot. This adjusted pot value is known as the implied pot.

In Practice

I AM SB-$400, BB-$800
4 callers and the big blind. Without antes, call of $400---11 to 1 odds.

$800x5 +SB of $400= $4400 ($4400 for a $400 call)

This is a situation where you must call (with almost any 2 cards)
