Re: Confusion on using odds to justify a call with 2 cards to come.

Clearly below the 5.1 required odds, so you would fold according to effective odds.

Makes sense.

Effective odds will dictate a fold for these hands even when it is correct to see the turn.

Also makes sense. I understand.

So to make your call on the flop correct, you will need your opponent to pay you off at least 3 BB (more precisely $17) between the turn and river to justify your flop call.

Ah-ha! Hence the reason why draws where the odds are pretty stacked against me making my hand are ones that I only want to go for against multiple opponents (3-4) because of the increased likelihood of additional BBs going into the pot. Heads up or against 2 opponents there are fewer people that I need to beat, but also fewer BBs in the pot to justify me risking more of my stack to try - right?
Thanks!
