Question regarding my opponent and pot odds
 

I know I played the following hand correct, but my opponent plays 3 tables of 2/4 Stud and I was shocked when the showdown came, as I thought he was making a mistake to play that hand against me.

Did he have the pot odds?

For those who aren't convinced 2+2=4, can you tell me why?

Re: Question regarding my opponent and pot odds
 

what would you do different if you were him?
3rd is standard
4th is ok
5-7 are standard.

I just want to know about the math.

Re: Question regarding my opponent and pot odds
 

He has a live 3 flush, it is standard to call another bet closing the action on fourth in a multiway raised pot on third.

SM&amp;Z say you should see 5th about 60% of the time with a 3 flush that doesn't catch another of its suit.

Not British, not smart.

Re: Question regarding my opponent and pot odds
 

It's as much as 60% of the time, which is a different statement. Here circumstances are less-than-ideal, because there aren't many people in and the pot is relatively small. Still, his call on fourth closes the action, and spades are pretty live. I've certainly made worse calls. Once he picks up the big draw on fifth, he ain't goin' anywhere, nor should he.
