So why does runner runner straight count as 1.5 outs?
I was thinking about this last night. Why are runner runner straights even counted as outs? They complete 1.5% of the time compared to backdoor flushes which complete 4% of the time. So why do we give them the same number of outs? I think I'm going to stop counting runner runner straights as outs unless the decision is really close to call and I do have a runner runner straight possiblity.
