Default Re: Can someone please explain the 2 4 rule in holdem

Its a reasonable estimate if the number of outs is low, as you start to get some big draws it can give you some numbers that are pretty far off.

Ex:
You hold Ks Qs on a Js Ts Qc board against Jd Td.

I have a 20 outs draw which makes me a favorite against his 2-pair but I'm certainly not hitting 80% of the time. (It's more like 65% or so)
