I was thinking after making some "close" calls in a session. If I am at a six max table, and I have a flush draw HU with another player.say board is A
9
2
. I have K
Q
......I cannot calculate for nine outs. Here it is. maybe everyone know this and I am just new, but nine outs is the number of outs you use in any book I've read so far. With Ten dead cards( folded hands and burns) before I see the turn, don't I HAVE to assume that 25% of the dead cards are diamonds? This leaves my " break even call" # of outs seven...or accually 7.5 making my % 30 to win? rule of 4=36% with nine outs. 30% with 7.5... I have never seen anyone mention the cards that are dead to the hand...Old school method comes up with, what? 36 cards left in deck and nine win? thats 25%...seems like mine is most precise. Or am I a nit, LOL ?
