25NL...but I had odds to call

[BrianSwa]

I hate this phrase and I hear it at least 10 times a day at these levels. I dont konw if people are totally reading the odds section of their poker books wrong or not but they are really getting this odds thing wrong. Usually I just smile to myself knowing that these idiots are way off, but every once in awhile I just go off on them.

Here is a example of what I mean, now this guy didnt say anything about odds but I have had people say "they had odds to call" in exact same instances. Im holding 2-2 and flop comes down 10s-As-2h I check it to the 2 players hopeing to check-raise, It works they shoot down a $3 bet into a $2 pot and I re-raise all in for $19. One guy folds and the other guy calls, at this point I put him on either A-10 or AK or something along those lines if he has AA or 10-10 so be it but im pretty sure im ahead. So the turn and river are no A or 10 so im expecting to drag the pot but I watch the money goes his way seeing his 2 suited rags just won a big pot. How the hell do you call
$19 into a $8 pot with suited rags.

Usually at this point the player would say they had odds to call my big bet.
My question is how the hell do they think they had odds to draw when I bet more then double the pot?
