Re: Pot Odds and Calling a Raise from the Big Blind
Don't get into the habit of calculating pot odds alone. You should calculate pot odds along with implied odds for almost every decision except when its an allin situation where you don't need to. In those situations a lot of people really don't understand pot odds. If someone was allin for 3x the big blind, you somehow knew they didn't have overcards (which of course is impossible), then it would be the correct play to call from the big blind with 27o. If you have a suited connector in the big blind you should call an allin of 3x the big blind even if you think your opponent could have a pocket pair.
