Tips
- To quickly calculate your hand percentages, multiply the number of outs by 4 for 2-card draws. Multiply by 2 when calculating the percentages of a single draw, as with the river.Thanks
- When adding up outs, be careful not to over-count. Under some circumstances, certain cards can contribute to 2 or more hands. For example, it after the flop you have both flush and straight draws (say, the 10, 9, 7 and 2 of diamonds, and the 8 of clubs) you might deduce that you have 17 outs. There are 9 outs for any of the remaining diamonds and 8 outs for any jack or 6, which would complete the straight. In reality, there are 15 outs because the jack and 6 of diamonds would complete either hand.Thanks
- Sometimes outs aren't true outs. In certain situations, an out may be more beneficial to your opponent than you. A good example is when you're playing an open- straight draw but the flop produces 3 suited cards. You have 8 outs � 4 on each end of the straight � but the cards suited to the flop actually benefit your opponent more because they hold a potential flush draw. Therefore, your outs are reduced to 6.Thanks
