short verion of pot odds....
You have 1,000 chips, there is 100 chips in the pot. Someone bets 100 chips, and its your turn. You have a flush draw. If you call the 100 chips, your getting 2:1 on your money, hence 2:1 pot odds. You need to work out the chance of your hand hitting, versus the money you have to put into the pot. In this case, fold.
however if there is 300 in the pot, and villian bets 100, you are getting 4:1 to call, as the chances of hitting your hand is less that 4:1, this makes it a call.
