Outs Quiz Question/Poll

I'm curious how people answer this because you will be surprised how some players will overlook outs. So, this is a question about a particular scenario. Player A who is shortstacked goes all in with Qs, Js. Player B pushes all in to isolate with Ks, Kc. The flop and turn is:

Qc, Jh, 10d, 3c.

Now, I ask you, how many outs does Player B have?

I count 16

^ This.


If you want to make counting outs more difficult, do it against a range.

I'm just curious don't most polls have the correct answer as a choice?? I mean even if they don't put the correct answer in the thread at least put none of the above.

I get 16 also.

definitely bastard, or maybe cake. this is a hard one.

16. And cake, since I STILL don't know what the hell bastard is.

Well it sure isn't cake.

:withstupi

lol missed the 9's, newborn babies make you tired fwiw lol

I'll assume Cake is 16 outs, so my answer is Cake.

If, on the other hand, you are player A the answer is enough outs to make you close your eyes for 10 seconds then look to see if you still have chips.

16 / bastard

This is how I feel about this thread

Might be good to construct a new scenario with multiple draws and partial outs? May be interesting to see the response of others and particularly for the OP. I am at Uni and am feeling a bit lazy therefore cannot be arsed to do it myself If someone else can be bothered I'm happy to offer my two pence again later today

16 Cakes please

4+4+2+3+3 = 16

Way too funny!

Since I have no idea what "cake" and "bastard" are... and I didn't find them in poker terminology lists ... and the right answer is not up there in numbers... dopey poll.

It wasn't a dopey question, though. Not very hard for some, but still a good exercise.

well i get 16 aswell so u must be a bastard 4 not putting the rigth answer lol

Counting ITT

16 bastards

I vote cake w/ 16 outs...

Bastard FTW!

I get 16... 3 3s, 3 10s, 4 As, 2 Ks, 4 9s..

No assigning numeric values to cake/bastard you bastards!

also: and I mean absolutely no offense to the OP... but if you can't do this fairly quickly and reliably then practice it till you can! Being able to count outs when you know exact whole cards is not difficult (or shouldn't be).... cause to be honest, all you are doing is counting.


having said that, we never (well rarely) know what our opponent exactly has so we have to count outs vs a range, which is considerably trickier..
