Outs and Drawing to Improve

[2Tone]

You are probably aware of this, but not all of these are true outs in all instances. For example, if any of the outs pair the board, the situation is very different.

While it's great to be thinking about the game, I'd suggest you make use the charts and the like that Slansky, Miller, etc. have already put together and take what you need from them rather than starting your own from scratch.

I "normal" rule of outs that I use is the following:

On the flop my number of outs X 4 = % to win in HU play only

On the turn my number of outs X 2 = % to win in HU play only


Try the math with cardplayer.com, it's almost bang on off a percent or two.

Thanks for the help eveyone.

Yes, I am aware that making a hand does not always mean it will be the winning hand (paired board when hitting flush draw, etc.). I just wanted to be able to cross reference improving hands to # of outs to create a study reference.

Thanks also for the link.
