Pot odds: The ratio of the amount of money in the pot to the bet you must call to continue in the hand.

Pot odds are the odds the pot is giving you for calling a bet.

ex.
If there is $50 in the pot and the final bet was $10, you are getting 5-to-1 odds for your call. p35.

I recommend buying some poker books to learn the basics. You can go to the books forum for that.
