Re: Creating Odds f or yourself with draws
Your roommate doesn't get it. With two overcards, a backdoor straight draw, a spade draw, and a heads up pot, you're getting odds to continue no matter what happens on the flop. Further, it makes little sense to build a pot in order to give yourself the odds to continue, as you point out.
You don't need to do this to continue though, which is a sort of important point to understand...
By the way, this probably belongs in the beginner forum. Good luck.
