Ok, so only chase an open-ended straight draw if it's cheap? Limp in?
What are the odds of hitting an open-ended straight draw on the river or turn?
cause if you win and others see you've been chasing hands all game you'll lose table presence and get all bets called no matter what from that point on..
Technically true micro but SD's are generally more hidden than FD's so the implied odds are often there, calling 1/2 pot bets on the flop with an OESD is often fine especially with position.
I know what you're saying obv, but I think the OP is looking for a rule of thumb to follow and taking your '1/4 pot or fold' out of context could mislead them into some nitty folds.
As for percentages, a clean OESD is 8 outs:
That means you have a 31.5% chance of hitting your straight by the river. Note I said 'clean', because if there's a flush draw on the board as well two of your outs will complete the flush as well as the straight
As kwhilborn said, having overs to the board adds an extra 3 outs per overcard.
Position is god when chasing a draw.
Don't chase the low end of a straight
Don't chase on paired boards
Learn your common outs and common odds and use them all the time
Thinking you have 31.5% chance of hitting your hand by the river can also be misleading as it assumes that villains wont bet or shove the turn.

Very nice response! Touche! Btw, where did you find that chart at? I didn't realize the chances of making that hand were as high as 31% when seeing both cards, but it makes sense when getting to see 2 cards rather than just the turn.
