Re: I need some clarification
With four to the flush on the flop you have 9 out 47 cards to make the flush. 47/9 = 5.22. Subtract 1 for the odds and you get 4.22. On the turn 46/9 = 5.11 minus and you get 4.11. I'm assuming this is why the pot odds of 4:1 are suggested when drawing to your four flush by the river (with four to the flush on the flop). I see where the 35% chance of making the flush with 2 cards to come is gotten. But this translates to ~2:1 odds. So why do you need 4:1 pot odds? To be safe? I'm just wondering.
