Re: Change Odds to Percentage
"Notice, that this is the odds required to make my hand by the river."
No, you have calculated incorrectly. It's much better than you think!
You have seen 5 cards once you have seen the flop, so you only need (47-8)/8 = 39/8 = 4.875 to 1 pot odds to try to catch your straight on your next card, and, if you miss, you only need (46-8) = 38/8 = 4.75 to 1 pot odds to try to catch on the river.
If you are able to go all in on the flop and see both cards for just one bet you only need a bit less than half these pot odds to call, roughly 2.2 to 1.
