Default Re: How to play with 2 cards to come?

In MP with only one limper ahead of you, JTo is an easy fold preflop. But since you're already in...

You can only calculate your odds for two cards to come if you are almost certain you're going to see the river. If not, you have to take it one street at a time. In this case, you're almost 12:1 against hitting your straight, so you have to fold. Open-ended straight draws on rainbow flops or flush draws can be calculated with 2 cards to come, but not gut-shot straights, as you found out here.
