Don't you just hate this sort of thing. I cannot count the number of times I have lost a pot in a freeroll because the guy held 2 hearts or something with 2 up and made the river ...grrrrrrrrr

awesome strategy
If you're asking for books then the one I'd suggest over others is: "Hold'em Wisdom for all Players Book by Daniel Negreanu".
oods calculator is kinda pointless
basic rules for working out your odds are
after the flop add up your outs and times by 4
so if you have 2 suited cards in your hand and 2 on the flop giving you a flush draw then you have 9 outs times by 4 = 36%
on the turn if you are still drawing times it by 2 so now its 18% to hit
give or take
This would work great if all people played according to some books rules. What about the guy who sits with 2 clubs and 2 on the table..waiting...or the idiot that goes all in on 4-9 hearts. Only when playing with experienced players in a very serious game would this work.Quote:

thanlks this helped
"poker odds" is a fun phrase! Which odds? Pot odds, implied odds, the odds of you holding the best hand now (say on the flop) or the odds of you winning the pot.All these odds are different and affect how you play a hand.
a guy chasing the river will do just that , especially if the buy in is low. so be careful. but it's good to let them pay, but be prepared to lose to fishes
