Re: Do you have the odds to call? (Question 1)
[ QUOTE ]
Assume your opponent will only bet when they have a made hand.
[/ QUOTE ]
This means that your only outs are to the flush.
[ QUOTE ]
If a scare card comes, like the third to a flush, they will fold and not pay it off.
[/ QUOTE ]
I should have been more explicit or made a better board because my goal was to have the flush cards be the only scare cards.
[ QUOTE ]
There is $6 in the pot and your opponent has bet $2.
[/ QUOTE ]
Your pot odds are 4:1, but your odds of making a flush on the river are 4.1:1 (37/9)
If your opponent will not pay you off when your flush card comes, then calling the turn is -EV because you are not getting the implied odds needed to make up for your lack of pot odds now.
