Re: 2-7 noob hand #1
To calculate, figure the number of cards that should win for you (by rank), the size of the stub, and make an educated guess as to how many of your outs are left in the deck. 4:1 is generally not enough if you have 2 ranks that hit you here, and that is not considering the possibility that it gets jammed behind you. If you figure your implied odds at 6:1... I don't recall all the action, but you are worse than 6:1 to hit here almost always, and if there is heavy action your 6's may not even be outs.
The turn is a critical street in TD. It is a great FTOP street and manipulating pot size allows for a lot of exploitation on the turn. If people like to fold, you can jam marginal hands more on the flop, and if they like to call, keep the pot on the smaller side with your marginal hands so they get the wrong price to take the third draw. There is just a ton of neat stuff you can do in TD built arround pot size control.
