Need some advice all. I frequently will use a pot odds calculator to determine whether or not I should continue on a draw and call a players bet. I also have read about 'the rule of 4 and 2'. The rule of 4 and 2 states that you multiply the number of outs you have by 4 on the flop to calculate the chances of hitting your card on the turn or river. It also states that you multiply your outs by 2 on the turn to calculate the chances of hitting your card on the river. I also know that if you multiply your outs by 2 and add 1, that this will calculate the chances of hitting your card on the next street.
I am left confused on which calculations I should follow. If I have a flush draw (9 outs) on the flop, and someone is betting into me, do I use the percentage of hitting it on the next street or the percentage of hitting it on the next two streets? With a flush draw, you have a 19% chance of hitting your card on the turn, and a 32% chance of hitting it on the turn or the river. Just curious what you are all using.
