Does anybody know of a chart I can print and memorize to quickly calculate odds to make my hand like
Flush draw on flop with two cards to come x-1 odds, open end straight with two cards to come, etc?

outs/unseen cards = win%

call/pot = % of the pot you're investing with a call.

If win% exceeds the % of the pot you're investing with a call, that call is profitable.

If win% doesn't exceed the % of the pot you're investing with a call, that call is unprofitable unless you have enough implied odds and or implied fold equity.

Statman. Like that, but I'm talking about you have four to a flush on flop, odds of making flush on turn and river. You have open ended straight draw. Etc. so I can compare with pot odds to play more +EV.

I think if you practice the math that you'll be much better off in the long run. Would you rather we hand you a fish or teach you to fish?

I suck at math and am looking for shortcuts. I have been practicing though.

If you can multiply by 2 you can get a good approximation for most situations.

If you know how many outs you have, take that number and multiply by 2. This will give you the percentage that you will hit on the next card. If you have 2 cards to come, take your result and multiply by 2 for the probability of hitting by the river.

If, on the flop, you have 9 outs to hit your flush, you will get it about 9*2 = 18% of the time. By the river - 18 * 2 = 36% of the time. If you compare this to Statmanhal's chart, you will see that it is pretty close, and it doesn't take memorization or heavy math.
