| I was wondering if someone could explain Pot Odds, I hear people speak a lot about someone getting 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 on their money - could someone explain this? | ||

| Plagiarism at its finest, here is a great explanation from the Lee Jones book: "Pot odds are the odds being offered to you by the pot compared to the amount of money you must invest in it. For instance, suppose after the river card is turned up, there is $30 in the pot. Your opponent bets $6. The pot now has $36 in it, and you have to call $6 to see his hand. You'r egetting pot odds of 6:1. You will also hear the expression, 'the pot is laying you 6:1." Now your choice is (relatively) easy: if you are no worse than a 6:1 underdog to win the pot, you call the $6; otherwise you fold. "Pot odds also apply yo draws. Suppose you have a draw that is a 3:1 underdog to be made. For you to call a bet, there should be at least three times as much miney in the pot as the amount you must call." -Moz "Yeah, I've made up your mind." | ||
