pot odds


Recommended Posts

I'll put it as simple as possible. Straight pot odds are what is in the pot and what you must call vs the chance you will have the winning hand. Say there's $8 in the pot and you have a 1 in 3 shot of having the winning hand, calling $4 and less is justified by pot odds because 4/12= 1/3. (The 12 is the 8 + your 4)Implied odds let you count money your opponent is going to bet on the next round of betting, but only if you are pretty positive that he will bet it. This works much better being in position. You take their bet on the next street and add it to the current pot, then find out the pot odds, which is obviously a lot easier to do in limit.
