1 - After the flop, calculate the number of outs in the deck: Using our example from step 1, we will have 9 outs
2 - Just multiply the number of cards that can help you by 4 and you will know the percentage of chances of receiving a card and being a winner on the turn or river. 9 x 4 = 36%
3 - After the turn, multiply the number of outs by 2 to know the chance of winning on the river. Although this method is not super accurate, it does provide a very clear guide when calculating the odds of online poker. Of course, purists will still want to do mental gymnastics to get the exact percentage number, but for the rest of us mere poker mortals, rule 4 and 2 is more than enough to give reasonable percentages.
