Do you say "Well, I have 12 outs to make a straight or flush, meaning I'm good here more than 1/4th of the time so I should bet."

With a fantastic draws like this, count 3 Qs as an out 3 way or headsup, and 4 way+ you have great call odds on a 12 outer, so it's usually correct to bet/raise the flop.

You should probably think like this: "meaning I'm 1.2:1 to make my draw by the river"
