Default Re: SSH question re: overcards & counting outs

I'm glad you like the book.

As for your question, I wasn't kidding when I said I didn't have a copy yet, so I can't look up the page reference. I'm not quite sure what hand you're talking about.

Having said that, I did sometimes intentionally neglect to mention incidental backdoor straight draws when they had a very small effect on the hand. While it's important always to count all your outs, it would have made the text cumbersome for me to mention every last backdoor straight draw. After all, you have at least some kind of hairy 3-straight on most of your hands.
