Hello everyone, I have a question about odds / pot odds.
The formula for the pot odds is:
for example
I have 3 outs (14.67: 1 flop to turn, 14.33: 1 turn to river)
475 pot
opponent bets 47
to call
475/97 = 4.86: 1
or
475 pot
opponent bet 47
to call 47
475 + 47 = 522/47 = 11.10: 1
or
475 + 47 + 47/47 = 12.06: 1
Could someone explain this a little better? I read the tutorial on this site and other sites, a book by David Sklansky. But no explanation coincides with each other.
I memorized all odds table
Example
I know that 8 outs are 4.88: 1 (16%) on the flop and turn to 4.75: 1 in the river. (Approximately 32%)
So I need to learn me percentages? or calculate them?
I see more easy to calculate odds ratios That Percentages,
that is your opinion about this that I say?
If I have 8 outs and the count gives me 22.19: 1 I call?
I can play with approximate numbers?
4.75: 1 (5: 1)
Thanks for reading, I hope your answer!
