Default Re: The reason you shouldn\'t play a lousy hand because of pot odds...

ok,your not thinking about this the rightway.
first of all you didnt have the pot odds that you needed to call pre-flop with that hand.
the reason being ,is when some one raises 3xBB and you have 3 callers,then you will need huge implied odds that you just dont have here.your looking to flop something like ,77x or 22x or at the very least 72x.
now the chances of you flopping thoes are much less than the odds on offer,and if you do hit the flop hard then,you will not get paid off as much as you need to make this a break-even or profitable call.
haing said that,you didnt nothing wrong after the flop.thats just poker,but from the point of view of the person who had the 22,he had the implied odds to call,he did,and look what happend to him.
