    Calculating Poker Odds

    This is how I work out my odds while playing poker (number of outs multiplyed by 2)

    I realize this only a rough guide and im sure alot of people started out this way but i would now like to learn to calculate the odds more accurately without using an odds calculator.can anyone give advice on where to go or what books or articles dicuss this in an easy to understand way?or does anyone know any way kind of formula for working this out?

    Getting to know your opponents (which is impossible in large site freerolls) is crucial to success. What are the tendencies of your opponents? Are you playing forum games or random site sng's? Cash tables are a whole different beast. What is your goal?

    You just have to count how many cards can improve your odds. But there are false odds too, be careful. If you have TJ, flop 988, other guy has QQ, if you aount Q as a good card for you it's a false odd.

    use math and picture what your opponents have got, then try work out the best way of attack

    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.

    Your hand totally misses the board....You have nothing, so you should check and fold. Another possibility is to bluff....but if bluffing know when to fold....

    The third possibility is that you currently do not hold a strong hand, but it is possible for you to make a strong hand if the turn or river brings you a good card. This situation is known as "drawing."........In this situation, a spade will make you a flush, and an Ace or King will bring you top pair........

    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

    You hit the flop well and hold a strong hand.You should bet....dont let anyone catch up...trapping can lead to trapping yourself...ppl fish and catch alot online...dont give them that opportunity
