An "Odds" question for you math-minded

[Kregar]

Hi Folks,

Math is not my forte, but I'm trying to deal with it so I can improve my game.

I know if I have 2 suited cards, and 2 more flop, I have about 4-1 odds against me to make a flush. If the pot odds are better than 4-1 then I should call.

What if there is one of my suited cards on the flop, and I'm holding a reasonably high card. Should I play one postflop bet in the hopes of getting the 4th suited card, and see if the 4-1 odds on the turn are still worth another bet against the pot odds?

Thanks in advance.
