| Counting the pot in bets rather than $$'s - King Yao and DIPO King Yao's Weiging Poker Odds encourages you to size up the pots by grouping bets into two categories: small and big. Then he tells you to multiply the '# of bets' by the '# of outs' to help you decide if you should call or not. What? Is it seriously possible to effectively lump all bets into two categories, small and large? Does this give you an accurate idea of how much is in the pot? I've played alot of home games for fun but am looking into learning to play for real and am wondering if there are any out there that use King Yao's '# of bets' and DIPO systems. |

| Im not sure if you might have got the wrong end of the stick here. Small bet and Big bet are usually limit Holdem terms. A small bet is equal to the size of the big blind. Many people look at the pot as multiples of the big blind. A big bet occurs after the turn in limit holdem when the fixed bet size doubles. At that point the pot needs to be looked at in terms of big bets. I havent heard of the systems you are talking about but in no-limit holdem its very common to think of the pot and stacks in terms of the number of big blinds it occurs. as said before in limit, the big blind = the small bet. |
