Default Re: my poker problem

i play NL, but almost always online, where they show pot sizes (and stack sizes). when i play with my friends, i'm horrible at keeping track. i majored in math in college too - the arithmetic is not the problem. anyway, that doesn't really seem all that relevant to anything, but i can give this piece of advice:

on the turn, to convert outs to %, multiply by 2. flush draw = 9 outs ~= 18%

on the flop, multiply by 4. it ain't perfect, and it ignores stuff like the bad guy redrawing to a boat to beat your flush, but it's useful.
