Message: [QUOTE="RocwX, post: 4721337, member: 263681"] This example only makes sense if you have a bluff catcher and the other player only bets the river with a monster or with a complete bluff, which isn't always the case. I prefer to use odds while playing the flop and the turn to understand if I should call a bet to go after my outs and in that case I'm pretty confident that I'm behind and can only win the hand if I catch it. For example, if you need one card to have a flush and you're pretty confident that the other player has a high pair, but not the flush draw, you're going after 9 outs. You have roughly 35% of chance of getting the flush on the turn or on the river. If you're willing to see both cards, you can take 1.9-to-1 odds and if it does hit, you're pretty much sure you have the best hand. If it doesn't hit it's an easy chek/fold on the river. [/QUOTE]
